Appcelerator Titanium Mobile's under an Apache 2.0 License:

I wish that Titanium hadn't "stolen the thunder" from PhoneGap, though, 
which really is far more "web-like" than Titanium in that it provides a 
Web-page environment with enhanced access to mobile features that aren't 
yet available to Web apps like camera, phone, etc:

Unfortunately, everyone I know who was excited about it has since 
switched to Titanium. :(
