Sencha Touch 2 + PhoneGAP VS android SDK

I am just confusing, the Sencha Touch 2 with PhoneGAP is a powerful things,
they only need to develop once then able to run in IOS and Android Operating system.

why still so many people is choosing use Android SDK to develop mobile apps?
may i know what is the limitation of Sencha Touch 2 to develop Android?

i m feeling i have no reason refuse use Sencha Touch 2 to develop mobile Apps.

just give me some guide, which one is better. Sencha Touch 2 With PhoneGAP or just use Android SDK with Eclipse ?

P/S: i have never been develop any mobile apps yet, just want to start the first apps, that is why need to research which one is better.

Sencha Touch and Phonegap are basically javascript libraries. They are webpages use html5 and css. Phonegap uses javascript libraries to invoke native java code to access device features like camera. They are slow. On the other hand native apps are coded using java(android) and objective C (ios). Native apps are much faster than application built using sencha touch and phonegap.

Very simple. You would use Sencha Touch if you are trying to build HTML5 apps. There are some limitations with HTML5 apps. But the advantage is that you have just one code base for both iOS and Android. With android SDK you get a native app with all native widgets.
