    And just for the record I have a few flagship apps in the app store with millions of active users
Source please.

     because your toolset is from yesterday and their's is from tomorrow
This is why I don't believe your first point without sources to verify. Eclipse+Android SDK is hardly from tomorrow. Windows 8 possibly. What else does that leave? Nada.

Oh okay so because I think the toolset is crap you want to call me out. No problem. Here's two that have over a million users below.

Oprah Magazine (1M+ subscribers): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/o-oprah-magazine-archive-dec...

Esquire Magazine (1M+ subscribers): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/esquire-magazine/id433020707...

Those are just two that I have built. I have an enterprise platform that I architected from the ground up that companies like pfizer use for it's whole workforce. I have ones written for Disney, Hearst, GE, MaryKay, Hallmark, Sesame Street, etc, etc. The one I'm building now is ready to scale to ~5M users right out of the gate and I believe we will succeed.

Now put your apps up and let me pick through them and tell you why you're wrong because I just don't believe your work is credible.

Hey man, not sure how worried about your info getting out there, but generally when people troll for 'proof' here I ignore it. Essentially it's just one more avenue for people to use against you, especially in regards to linking a name/identity to work and I generally (personally) try to keep them separate. Your choice, just something to think about... also, don't feed the trolls etc ;)

A valid point I'll have to keep in mind next time. I do use my real name here. I should probably think about changing that.

What’s wrong about being a real person with opinions? That is, unless you behave like an idiot, which is certainly not the case here.

Maybe he means Ubuntu for mobile? I kid, I kid!

Having started working on Android recently, if Android is tomorrow, the future sure is dystopian.
