Glad you brought PhoneGap up Joe. I have been using PhoneGap for about

Don't thank me. That was Henrik <smile>.

I'm still not sold on the generators. I've got to take a little more time to look at them in depth and see how true they stay to the underlying architecture of the device.

I know that Android has absolute magic with its Intent concept. For example, you say you want to email someone, and Android checks which application you use - if you have more than one, it prompts you as to which one to use. I suspect that PhoneGap keeps that utility in place, but I'd want to see how it works.
