However, unlike most people at Nitobi, I am using a PC. However, I spend most of my time running Ubuntu Hardy Heron on my dual-boot system. This means that unless I wanted to jailbreak a phone, there’s really no way that I could do iPhone Development. However, the other day I decided to start taking a look at the Android SDK when the G1 was announced. It’ll be a while since we’ll get any Android phones in Canada (for more info, read this), it’ll be good for the rest of the planet to have the ability to write once and run anywhere. Sort of like what Dave said. [...] [...] Recently, I’ve been looking at PhoneGap. However, unlike most people at Nitobi, I am using a PC.

This container gives the view access to APIs available on the device, that may not be available yet via WebKit alone. AIR provides a similar container for Flash and Ajax content on the desktop. PhoneGap is a free open source development tool and framework that allows web developers to take advantage of the powerful features in the iPhone SDK from HTML and JavaScript. We're trying to make iPhone app development easy and open. For many applications a web application is the way to but in Safari you don't get access to the native iPhone APIs, and the that's the problem we're trying to solve.
