I was replying to your question about why it is sometimes better to have a native app, even though you may not need direct access to hardware - user experience is another factor.<p>Do understand that such a kind of experience  may be deliverable today, with PastryKit or whatever someone else develops, but Apple can break this compatibility (which it cant do with its native SDK).<p>A new business model may exist where developers make advertising money off free iphone webapps. It is extremely naiive to believe that Apple will allow you to deliver the same user experience by bypassing the App Store.
