Android also has a native C/C++ development kit.

You can also cross-compile iPhone apps on Linux, however, you won't be able to sell it at their app store.

Another alternative is the Nokia N900 which uses maemo.

I believe if you use the native C/C++ development kit you still have to write the interface in java.
