Great solution - whats the problem again?

On first glance this seems great but when you dig deeper it starts to seem to make less sense -- HTML to native? Isnt that the opposite of the way we are all going?

Except almost definitely in the mobile space where pathetic describes the on-board resources and a bit of native would be a god-send.
Having said that the most attractive short cut would be writing apps for the iPhone without having to learn Objective-C (yuk twice, its always made me feel uncomfortable). But not on anything except a Mac with the iPhone SDK though -- why would you bother? Unless of course you wanted to build a Hackintosh first :-)
