I only use Phonegap with simple games/apps. I build it through eclipse (for droid) and xcode (for ios) because it gives me more flexibility in the build. I can add any 3rd party sdk I want, in this case AdMob. I can also include, exclude permissions, etc.
Also, in the past I used the Audio Latency plugin for phonegap to fix up laggy sound issues, however I didn't need to this time. I'm guessing the latest version of phonegap has solved that issue.
Thanks for the nice words on my game, yes I did all the graphics myself. Except for the pictures, those were purchased.
