The OpenGL bindings in C# are twice slower than JOGL lol. Finally, it is already possible but not legal to install a JVM on an IPhone, Mono is not the only way.

I work with .Net every day. Considering the depth and power of the .Net framework coupled with the fast learning curve, I'm surprised at comments like "Mono is a virus." I spent a few evenings trying to learn Cocoa and the iPhone SDK, but I just don't have the spare time to learn yet another language and framework just so I can throw a couple of apps together. I'm looking for a specialized database application and a very specific remote control application. Neither will interest the general public at all, and since I've already written both programs, I'm hard pressed to find a reason to have to start over from scratch if I want to develop them on the iPhone. At least WinMo lets me port my source code (even if it means I have to re-design my forms). As to Java on the iPhone: I feel the same way I do about Mono on the iPhone. It needs to happen. As to the API restrictions... a Java ME applet on the iPhone couldn't do anything that a Java ME applet on any other phone can't do. So that issue is really a non-starter. Seriously….

Mark Hughes, you're an idiot... Neither Java or .NET (or even Mono) suck.. they're all extremely nice. But I guess there will always be people like you in the world..
