re: #6 prononymous

Not many of the developers I know share your viewpoint. I would modify your statement to say that if I were going to develop an app, I would do so for Android and iOS first and port to other platforms if there was enough incentive. If you only develop for Android, you develop for 39% of the market. If you develop for both Android and iOS, you develop for over 70% of the market. Why would you ignore that big of a percentage of potential customers?
