jsonp callback not firing from iPhone simulator with PhoneGap

Question

I have an HTML5/JS app backed by ASP.NET WebAPI. The WebAPI is running on my windows PC IIS for now and the client app is running on a separate mac device on the same network.

When I run the application via Safari on the Mac, this works fine (callbacks okay, etc...) - same goes for browsers on my Windows PC.

After I build the PhoneGap app and load in XCode then try to run the simulator, I get errors (jQuery###### never called), the typical callback is never called error.
