it for Android. I personally don't want to waste any time on jumping
through Apple's hoops. That's MY New Year's Resolution :).

And please note, PhoneGap (and some other HTML to native tools) allow some level of native access, which is the whole point behind native applications. So there's a real argument to be made for eschewing the whole native issue entirely and going straight to a generator. I'm just not at that point yet.
