Mobile developer hell

Multiple platforms -- each with their own SDKs, distribution mechanisms and security models

Which platforms? For Which Users? Port, test, update and support that application

This "plumbing" work dampens innovation, distracting from development of the core technology

The modern Web browser: Reduce risk and development time, maximize reach for app developers.

To hell with it
