Alright, I'll be the one to say it: all of these have been available as PhoneGap plugins for a long, long time.

This is the problem with building a paid-for subscription service like this- no-one is going to help you. By the nature of being open source, PhoneGap has a ton of developers willing to donate their time to extend the existing functionality in any which way you could want.

Unfortunately PhoneGap sucked to get started on the last time I tried it. Trigger, I had an app running about 2 minutes after getting to their website. PhoneGaps cool as it's opensource, Trigger is cool as it just works, has support and great docs.

I'd suggest you give it a try. p.s. I do not work for trigger.

This just keeps getting better and better. I know of several non-coders whose 'learning to code' project was building a working iPhone app, all because of Trigger.io! Badass.

I'm in that boat - I'd love to see a showcase of apps built with trigger.io, however informal

Yes, when we get a spare sec we do need to add that to our site. Here's a taster:

More great features. The Facebook ask integration is huge!

I love Trigger.io! Great work guys!

Really nice. I'd love to see you guys do some coffeescript/clojurescript samples as well.
