<blockquote type="cite"><div>I used Titanium for a project at the end of last year which I was drawn to by the ability to offer native interfaces across all platforms. Whilst the technology is quite impressive there are some annoying bugs - for example updating the data source for a list doesn't update the UI element despite claims it does. The support is poor and generally they aren't too interested in fixing the bugs rather than focussing on the next version. That said I found bugs workable round and it certainly was the best of the 3 options when I looked into it September time last year. As with all the mobile frameworks if you're looking to do something complex you'll be better off going down the native route.<br>

</div></div>Hi Jason,<br>
<br>
I've used Rhodes on Blackberry phones, fairly newer models.<br>
<br>
The main reason I chose it was because it looked so similar to Rails<br>
and you get to write Ruby (in ERB templates). But in the end all it<br>
does is creates a native web server, that is embedded within the app<br>
that serves the pages. The load time is noticeable, while the web<br>
server loads up. It is only a few seconds, but ... it isn't native,<br>
and the interface is all web pages.<br>
<br>
The slug the framework produces is about 1.9MB in size, compared to<br>
<100KB a native app would. 1.8MB is there constantly plus your app.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps,<br>
Alex<br>
