Hi All, The thing is that Phonegap and Sencha/JQuery mobile are not the same. Phonegap is a framework which extends Android Webview. Sencha/JQMob provides a wrapper to HTML/CSS to make it UX friendly. I have used phonegap to run applications on Android before I started with native programming. Phonegap cloud build is good place to hold source code and to build apps for different platforms. But it doesn't mean that PhoneGap is the only solution to develop cross platform mobile applications!!!
AnscaMobile's corona is a far more effective way. Even though they only priced options and package becomes heavier, it is professionally written - even for gaming! Anyway, I dont like PhoneGap or Corona just because of their poor performance over native or NDK applications on Android.
