title: LocalStorage limit on PhoneGap
body: <p>There is usually a limit of 5MB on localStorage on browsers, including iPhone's Safari.</p>
  
  <p>Since PhoneGap has the access higher security privileges including access to other storage mechanisms on the device, in theory they should be able to eliminate the limit of 5MB.</p>
  
  <p>For example, it should be able to get around the usual restrictions by storing the data on a file, etc while keeping the API compatible with localStorage javascript object.</p>
  
  <p>Is this done? Or is PhoneGap limited to the same 5MB?</p>
