Could someone please recommend any PhoneGap-based apps that they consider "best-of-breed?"

You could try mine out, I put a lot of love into it.

Here are some vouchers:

Purchased this to check it out, since I couldn't figure out how to use the vouchers.

Thanks for posting this example. It's pretty responsive... not sure if I would have known it was PhoneGap.

One bug report: Divide-by-zero seems to act as if nothing happened, rather than reporting an error or NaN value.

I took the last one. I'm very interested in trying PhoneGap. I'll check your app and leave a review. Thanks!
Not listed in Google Play? :( I would have even paid for it to try it.
I'll be porting it this weekend; need to figure out that whole "fragmented" display size issue.
What, you used Phonegap and still made everything pixel/density/size specific? Uh, what?

Figuring it out is probably going to be redoing much of it correctly. You might want to read up on responsive design.

The AppBrain library stats page for phonegap lists the top Android apps that are based on Phonegap: http://www.appbrain.com/stats/libraries/details/phonegap/pho...
I'd love to see any that run as smoothly as if they were native.
Here's mine:

I posted some promo codes in the parent thread. Let me know if those run out and I can add some here.

I would love it if the OP would chime in here, so we could see what the RubyMotion folks are missing.
