The world is still getting used to small form factor screens and elastic layouts in HTML5. But if you have to crack these nuts (along with all the other challenges of building a great UI) I'd suggest that you will get more mileage out of cracking them in HTML5 rather than a 3 different native toolkits.

I agree that the formats and protocols of the open web will win out but I've yet to see anything built under the "HTML5" brand that comes close to a great native app. (That's to say, I've seen plenty of sucky native apps). A future of write once (responsively) might be a great battle cry for the future, but it's not here yet. Got here from Dermot Dalys link.
