Does mono support RX and LINQ? That would be reason enought to think about switching from Obj-C.

LINQ is a language feature. RX is a paradigm in a form of an open-source library: https://rx.codeplex.com/

Ah that's interesting. I for some reason assumed that the C# implementation was an addition to the language.

There's on-going efforts for RX support but you can use something like ReactiveUI with Xamarin.iOS http://blog.paulbetts.org/index.php/2013/03/12/reactiveui-4-...

I can't speak to Rx, but I use LINQ to objects and LINQ to XML frequently. Async/await is also supported in mono 3 and is in beta for the Xamarin tools.

I can't wait until mono implements WPF...
