Why choose Xamarin?

There are so many factual errors and outdated assumptions in your thread that i wont take the time to do a writeup. To put it short: - You're wrong. - Given the current speed of Javascript on mobile, Xamarin is just a job creation tool for unemployed .NET/WPF Developers. - You cannnot reuse run-of-the-mill web devs for hybrid app development. - Good web developers are just as expensive as good native devs. - Hybrid app development is not easier than native development.

Have a nice weekend.

I forgot to add this to anyone who disagrees with this comment. Take a look at Ionic Framework if you think PhoneGap/Cordova can't provide a native look and feel.
