I don't mean to bust your balls here, because I really like HTML5 and believe that there's some potential there for making apps, but I just installed it, and when offline, the app does nothing besides showing me interface and a loading spinner. Forms will even work, but the view isn't updated and nothing really works.

When I have a connection on it works, but the app asked me for my location, I thought it would give me my currency based on my location, but instead it gave me nothing at all. So I tell you my exact location and get nothing back? Why did I allowed it then?

Overall it's not a really good experience, the modals are cool and the buttons are usable by the fingers, but can't ever mistake it for a native one.

PS: I tried to comment on the blog this exact comment here and the comments were already closed. Maybe too bad comments?
