@dirxion, I understand where you are trying to work with the masses on this one (one application to fit all). However, IMHO, with the type of folks you are trying to reach you really need to consider native apps for the devices. to be able to store on the device. To build a web app for a phone is one thing as they are more likely to have internet access. But the iPad is not always connected to the internet, you need to consider that, especially if customers live in the boonies.

@estebanclarin You are correct. This is a "web" app as stated in the title. I ask you, what good is going native on a tablet if you haven't already optimized your content for the browser? Obj C gets you on the iPad alone. HTML covers all your bases & there are a slew of tablets announced for the Android OS - each with dif resolutions. Also think of what is at stake. No web app, no links. No links means no Facebook or Twitter. Native is important but I hesitate to discredit the value in web apps.
