But I think it is crucial to remember that you don't always need PhoneGap. A great example of that is camera access. Did you know that recent mobile browsers support accessing the camera directly from HTML and JavaScript? Let's look at an example.Over a year ago I wrote a blog post where I created an application called "Color Thief." This application made use of PhoneGap's Camera API and a... Visit Raymond's Blog
