I have a native app that has an sqlite database with half a dozen tables, most of which are small. One, however, has a few thousand records. I've been taking a look into Sencha Touch. It looks great. Now I'm trying to figure out the best way to migrate my data into something that's usable, without hosting it as a JSON service. Anyone have a good solution?

You can use WebSQL if its running on iOS or Android. You can also use Sencha's LocalStorageProxy but you might run into performance issues with that many records. If you run on PhoneGap, you can keep your existing SQLite database.

You might want to look at CouchDB, I'm using it for a jquery mobile project and it's a pretty nice/clean way to handle data.

CouchDB installed onto the iPhone/iPad?
