Is it significantly different from Visual Studio? How easily could a VS user transition to it?

I think I'd be willing to drop $300 of my own money if I could put my many years of C# experience to work developing iOS and Android apps.

Great! Can I add it to the post?

Sure. It's probably better to link to the blog post that has the video and the slides available: http://blog.xamarin.com/webinar-recording-native-mobile-apps...

The only thing that I'm really missing is Resharper. For other things XS is very similar to VS. Remember that the cost is $300 for each platform, so you have to spend $600.
