Primarily PhoneGap was developed to permit cross plaform development ( i.e code once and compile for various mobile platform supported by PhoneGap). This is good when your application do not require several hardware feature, multitasking or concurrency implementations. One major disadvantage is that some PhoneGap api will work well for some platform and will have Quirks on other platforms, so you have to properly check if the feature you want to use works well for all platforms you want to develop for. I will conclude by saying that every thing depends on your app requirements

This should be based on your requirements. Cross-platform environments have lots of bugs and issues. Most likely developers used them to create application that does not need a lot of processing and threads and does not need the heavy use of the hardware like an application to browse a web content with a nice views like HTML's.

I use Sencha and PhoneGap before for such application.

I use jembe (http://www.jembe.fr). It also let you develop and build your iphone/android application from windows or linux, and give you an API to access native features.
