Alas, it's still under development, several weeks away from release at best.
The biggest reason it feels native is that I'm attempting very little imitation of the iOS interface chrome. Other than a menu bar at the top and some text boxes as needed, everything is touchable graphics. It doesn't look or act anything like a web page; for instance, the click "shadow" never appears, and you can't scroll the page out of bounds (although there's a WebKit input box bug with that, too).
