BUT Apple is perfect in this respect and we should all spread love for them and hate on Palm like we were three weeks ago, right? ...right? Times change. Were developers mad when DOS was killed off for Windows? It's progress... If you don't want to do JS, then hack on the Pre from a rooted device, and have some fun in good ole GNU/Linux. Or find a different mailing list to go to and a new development system to develop on. If you don't like the "100% Palm controlled appstore", you could always develop for iPhone, on the off chance that you own a Mac. Oh wait... hm... You NEED a Mac PC AND you can still only redistribute in the iPhone apps store. Way to go for bashing Palm again, guys. Or you could release your apps as obfuscated source, or powered mostly by a backend, and let people compile things for their 'testing environment' and legally sideload them. Just because webOS killed your market for hacks, Dmitry, doesn't mean that it is a worthless platform, or anything like that. The guys at Palm did a heck of a job on mojo, and just because it's OMGNOWTF JAVASCRIPT SUX LOL doesn't make it any less of a platform than the ObjC iCrap or Java Android application suites.
