Yet you write the majority of your interface with high productivity in HTML. Rhodes is available for iPhone, Windows Mobile and Research in Motion (BlackBerry),Symbian and Android smartphones. In this session we’ll build a compelling mobile app from scratch in 15 minutes.

Tomasz: I feel your pain ;) The five star votes prior to the talk were justified though: it was an excellent presentation of really relevant, interesting stuff.
