I really would have liked to make things clearer during that

presentation, but i have repeatedly come the same
conclusion, namely 
that development for mobile platforms in a native format is
a major pain 
in the you-know-where.

The only birding platforms there are right now are either
flash/ flash 
mobile or Windows Compact .NET Framework.

Something that i could have emphasized more during my
presentation is 
the fact that this diversity comes from the fact that the
phones 
themselves are so diverse - a low cost platform does not
offer as many 
bells and whistles as an expensive one.
