Not sure how many folks have tried both Dashcode that comes with the
new iPhone SDK and iUI or WAn... I have used Dashcode... you can
create a pretty slick app using Dashcode that look like the native
apps (including left-to-right transitions, flip-backside-on-top, etc).
The dashcode javascript libraries are not scrambled and it's not too
hard to extend the javascript code if you find something missing in
their functionality...

However, today, it only runs in the Simulator.... when you deploy it
and try to run it on a real iPhone, you will find the smooth left-to-
right transitions and many of the other whistle-bells (e.g. auto-hide
of address-bar and navigation bar) are not working yet... you will
need the 2.0 firmware for that.

I am tempted to rewrite my webapp using WAn, so I can get the
functionality working on a real iPhone and because I am not a big fan
of having to use Dashcode for doing my development (e.g. there is no
SVN support, etc in the tool)...

I realize the Objective-C SDK is getting the most attention and Apple
will put most of their efforts there, but what is the future of the
iUI and WAn frameworks, assuming that Apple will continue to support
web app development for the iPhone as a first-class-citizen and
continue to add more integration support (e.g. javascript  library for
GPS, address-book, etc.)... ?
