I own a web hosting company with both for-profit and not-for-profit clients. I have been offering mobile websites to my clients, however, they are now asking for mobile apps. I discovered buzztouch this evening while doing google searches for mobile app development. I am basically a network engineer and a Linux/UNIX/Solaris administrator and I have some exposure Java servlets and JSP development -- but I don't know a darned thing about mobile apps -- so, here I go... I like the idea of downloading and compiling your own source code. I also like the self-hosting option which think I will pursue after I get my feet wet. Great to be here!

I think you'll do just fine! Welcome to the community! Just snoop through a couple of how-to's and maybe take a few of the BTU courses to get familiar, and you'll be off like a shot! Cheers! -- Smug
