viraptor makes a very compelling case for at least 1 option for mobile apps in Python.
About 15.5 years ago while I was still a grad student, I released a (horribly designed, mostly self-experimentation) editor in Python + wxPython that I initially wrote to run on Windows. I didn't run it regularly in Linux or OS X until 2008, and it all just worked. OS X was a little laggy with my editor, but hey, write once run on 3 platforms.
Python is really solid on multi-platform, because there are so many Python users already using every platform that want to bring Python there.
