Developing Mobile Application
-
i'm c# and vb.net programmer using visual studio 2010 and microsoft sql server. at the first time, i'm interested in developing windows phone 7.5 application and games, i've downloaded and attached the SDK in my visual studio. however, i heard an issue that Windows Phone 8 will launch soon, looks like i'd better wait until it launched. nah, while waiting for this new OS, i'm planning to write blackberry application for BB OS 5-7. is this a good plan or what? i'm really confuse. :doh: sorry for long story, but i really really love to learn about mobile programming. :laugh:

As I understand it, Blackberry has peaked and fading, I'd go for Android or iOS (Apple). iOS development required a Mac, so the cheap option, unless you have a Mac, is to go Android. Android is Java, so much of your C# experience is transferable. iOS requires knowledge in Objective C which isn't a big stretch but you would do well to buy a book on the language before diving in.

Midnight Ahri, the idea is brilliant but you rightly said that windows 8 is going to get launched. I would recommend you to go ahead with your plan to develop app for BB OS 5-7. All the best mate.

You are right to an extent . The reason I am saying this is because BB customers are of upper middle class and are ready to pay for good service. If your target is to generate revenue then BB is still the best bet. Rest depends upon your idea. For Android and iOS they are the future specially Android. All the best mate.
If you feed fish to a man you serve him for one day. BUt if you teach him to fish you serve him for his lifetime.
