Comment on Ask HN: Help me to chose a mobile plattform for development

Comments

You should probably check on the usual suspects: what apps do you want to make, who are you making apps for, what kind of mobiles does your target market usually have AND (maybe more important) what influences their decisions on acquiring phones (trends, utility/job, available apps..). Studying what your future users do is the way to know what they want. And of course, watch the competition in each platform, how many there are and how well are they doing.

But do you really have to focus in one single platform? Making apps in different formats could be a good move.

And, I don't own any of these super cool phones of late, so I don't know if any "cross-platform" apps exist, but I think it would be awesome if I could play with my Nokia against someone who has a shiny HTC or an iPhone :)
