Same here. The doc provided contains very few working examples. Support on forums is nearly non-existent. They have good tutorials videos but once you start adding functionality it hits the fan. I originally wanted to save dev time but unless you're making a static app, or a RSS feed you better go with java or objective-c.

Oh dear... I'm looking forward to build a prototype soon then. Indeed when searching through their forums for a spreadsheet style grid component I found plenty of unanswered topics.

Yes I'd like to go native too. It would make plenty of things much easier. But given our limited (human) resources it's just not an option for now. We just can't afford developing for both iOS and Android. Even though barely no-one's going to use the Android version (it's a tablet app), it's much better from a marketing point of view to say that we're supporting both.

If you just want to hook-up an API to a view it will do the job. You can check this, its supposed to be the best apps done w/ SenchaTouch so far > http://www.sencha.com/apps/
