I bought an iPod touch 3rd Gen half year ago, and I got recently an iPad WiFi. I also have a Onyx Bold Blackberry.
I don’t have a Mac Book or any other apple product of laptop.
As a programmer, I speak C, Delphi and Java. I’d like to start playing around in mobile application.
I don’t know whether I should start in Blackberry platform, iPod /iPad platform, or Android platform.
Ok, for each platform, what is the cheapest way to get started to play around the language?
1. Blackberry
2. iPod
3. Android
The path of least resistance and also of lowest cost for you is Java development for Android. Only problem, you don’t seem to have an Android phone. Though i’m sure you can pick up a used one cheap.
Why: The Eclipse IDE is free, there are free Eclipse plugins available from Google for Android dev, there’s no annual dev cost like with iPhone/iPad development
