If you're good with IOS - Use IOS framework for the front end and Ruby on Rails / Sinatra backend - primarily focusing on REST. Use Phonegap if you want this app to be built for different mobile OSs ( IOS , Android, Symbian) and you dont have enough expertise for each. Although phone gap has is limitations. My experience with Phonegap was bad. Speed of the application and quality of the widgets are slower compared to native IOS app ( X-Code ) .
