This is going to be an unpopular answer but you could take your .NET skillset and start developing applications running on Mono - http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page - now and then see where the path takes you.

Best of luck!

haha, didn't expect someone to drop the M-bomb!

I really want to try new things, rather than just taking my skillset to a new OS, so i'll politely decline your suggestion. Thanks anyway
