I think the market for cross-platform apps is large - but the market
for apps that you can't sell is small.  Being able to sell the
cross-platform apps via the iOS and Android app stores is key, imo.

As it is, I target Nintendo 2DS & 3DS, and Blackberry tablet and all
Windows as well as iPads, iPhones, Android phones and Android tablets.
Bit I still hanker after Cordova just to target the iPhone store.
Plus iPhone deals with web-sites awkwardly.  You have to present as
native, *or* the user has to bookmark each individual page they use.
