    actually each phone has different languages used for its applications, for example apple has its own kind of language that is used for app's, and im sure that the other phones are just like that, java is on many/most phones but im also sure you cant make a mobile app with java.

    Windows phones? I did not know those existed... 'cause almost no one uses them right now? :b I have an iPhone, and everyone I know is either Apple products or Android. >>

    Suggestion, though... Help section. I see a lot more use in having the Help section than having the ban appeals/complaints. xD And with applications sections being available, maybe add the wiki?

    Java/Android is generally the easiest to program for. There is a reason most uni's teach java and use android as a teaching platform.

    As for WP7, I can't believe it will ever be as popular as that graph suggests.
    As someone who works for a mobile app development company, I can only see android becoming stronger and stronger. Business forecasts put the Amazon kindle tab platform (android) as being a big hit this christmas.

    If you really want write a mobile app for all platforms, html5 is probably the easiest cross platform system, since it can run either in a browser on all devices, or with an app wrapper.

    (As for the comment about IOS running java, don't bet on it)
