As for your liking the Visual Studio IDE, I'm happy for you. But try to stick to facts and objectivity when stating something is better. If you like it better (tho I rather doubt from anything you've said here you've even *looked* at NSBasic) then simply say; "I prefer Appforge - you should take a look at it" and say *why* you prefer it. Otherwise your statements will be dismissed as having no merit.
As for HB++ - with that price tag I might as *well* be using CW9...

Popularity. I'm using C, but as a development support in the company I'm working I can see that about 90% of basic developers are using appforge instead of nsb or HB. Personally I like the "look & feel" in it - the good old visual studio...
I've heard that HB++ is blazing fast but no time to check.

AppForge MobileVB is what you are looking for. NSBasic is also a basic clone but appforge is better.
AppForge is slower than NSBasic, has a larger runtime, requires owning VB in order to use it, and produces apps that don't look anything *like* PalmOS apps because it's runtime uses a completely non-standard widget set. And it's more *expensive* than NSBasic.
WHAT, *exactly* makes Appforge better?
