Device/network API panel
summary
PhoneGap ships a working camera API but the panel shows it evolving into a richer media capture surface; browsers already implement getUserMedia in Chrome Canary for audio/video but codecs and streaming details remain unresolved. Contacts API needs privacy-driven redesign and cloud integration. Bluevia demonstrates carrier billing and SMS payment hooks as real network APIs. Security/permission UX is the recurring blocker — modal permission fatigue, packaged apps and Web Intents for payments are proposed workarounds.
