I kept using Symbian until the end, Symbian Belle was quite nice, and with PIPS and Qt, Symbian C++ wasn't that bad.

Also jumped into Windows Phones, as its development experience was miles ahead (still is) from whatever comes out of Google.

With exception of Android, I never needed a "gaming rig/server configuration" for mobile development.

Anyway it is what it is.

I remember picking up a secondhand hp ipaq pocket pc and got my mind blown when I realized how easy it is to make an app for it. It's basically just plain old winform apps.
