This is brilliant,
seems to me Phonegap is the way to go,
There are just too many standards/factions across Web/mobile/telecoms sector.
Not since GSM/ETSI success of the 90s (some might argue it was too successful), and the fragmentations of standards that led to now the failures of likes of Nortel.
Java/open source are way to go..
Lets focus on what really matters, namely: what consumers/users need and their perceive (real) benefits and what they are happy to pay for that service..
Future is bright for the right people with the right tool & services.
