Ask HN: Mobile apps vs web apps over next 3-5 years

Hey HN, I wanted to get your opinion on how you see mobile apps vs. web apps performing over the next few years.

As a hacker, I normally find myself in a position where I can create an app using web technologies but it doesn't have the same "polish" (read: smoothness in animations) as its native counterpart. I'm aware of the benefits of web apps but I find that consumers often get peeved at this lack of polish. Do you see this changing anytime soon? Will people eventually migrate to web apps even on their smart phones?

Thanks!
