Actually it is possible to get the battery level on PhoneGap. If you want you can register event listeners for the following events:

• "batterystatus" fired whenever the battery level changes by 1% or is plugged in or unplugged.
• "batterylow" fired when you reach the low battery threshold i.e. 20%
• "batterycritical" fired when you reach the critical battery threshold i.e. 5%

For some reason this hasn't shown up on the docs site. I will have to get that fixed.
