I think I agree with the author. I do still believe the mobile web will be
better in the future though :)
Honestly, I noticed that he said that Objective-C > HTML5. The reason
I started the Android version of PhoneGap was because I wanted apps on
my phone, and I wasn't going to give Apple any of my money. Android
users are the big losers if iOS fails, because people are just going

Articles like these are tricky b/c of the YMMV factor. Its very well
proven that good apps, even completely native feeling apps, *can* be
built but frankly not every developer is up to that task.
It certainly isn't in our mandate to prescribe web development practices either.

Not to mention, UIWebView is hobbled with a slower engine. Sometimes we do

It's a good article that's written in an honest and fair tone.
Personally, I've felt a lot of pain-points that he's mentioned. While
fixing UX / UI performance issues, I've often lost track of what I set out
to create - an app.
However, one important point that I continually keep in mind is that
I am one of the people who predict that what happened on the desktop
computer will happen on mobile as well. It's just a matter of time. The
first thing you launch when your computer boots up is your web browser.
That behaviour will also apply to mobile devices in my opinion.
