We asked this question before writing our iOS app. Before I came on the team they had used PhoneGap to get part way there, but pulled the plug because of performance issues. Creating the app in native iOS worked and took about the same amount of time as what the original PhoneGap project had spent writing and trying to optimize the performance issues. Disclaimer, 2/3 team members had some iOS experience.
When we started to port our app to Android and went through the same analysis again. Once again, we have picked native.
Looking at the iOS app we naturally have some webviews for the nice formatting and easy loading of changeable content. If you look at the LinkedIn presentations they have ended up in a similar place. Basically have native apps on each platform with some common ground shared through web views.
