What dominic said - this is not the kind of 'choice' that's going to make a 
developer happy. This might be a decent play by RIM to get lots of apps (as 
porting it should in theory be easy, though there's a rather humongous hole 
here amongst all these options: No ObjC/Cocoa - not that they could, just 
highlighting that this won't get them quite as many early ports as one might 
imagine).

I'm also rather worried this means apps look nothing alike and consistency 
is very hard to find. It's also a typical RIM thing to do: Research 
everything, release everything, and nobody mention the support costs of 
maintaining all of this up to the highest possible standards.
