Kev is right re. phone gap -- you can get a decent native-feeling app, but there are certainly limits. The JavaScript engine will not be able to JIT, and things like 'swipe' functionality will not be as smooth as for a real native app. Something to mention with phonegap - you probably won't be able to use the MooTools version of the APE JSF, you will have to use the JavaScript.js implementation instead; this means you will have differences between your actual code and the APE documentation/examples.
One option is to implement the APE protocol over web sockets using the iOS native SDK. If you are an experienced C hacker and grok HTTP, you should be able to sniff packets and reverse engineer the protocol, leading to a working stack in about a week.
