I would agree with the post if IPhone was on a better network like Verizon, but given that AT&T's network coverage just isn't that great in the US (I'm currently a subscriber), not to mention that we don't have great nationwide wifi yet; I just feel that most IPhone apps still need to written in obj c.

You can store the HTML/CSS/JavaScript locally within the app, as well as use the built in SQLite database, which solves this problem. Of course, you lose the ability to update the app whenever you wish.
