In fact, developer interest largely is a two-horse race between Apple and Google. The "true game changing news" is Android, Appcelerator says. In fact, sentiment has swung fairly quickly towards Android as the clear "second choice" for developers, after Apple.
In January 2010, 86 percent of developers were interested in iPhone and 68 percent were interested in Android, an 18 point spread. That spread has closed to just six points now (iPhone 88 percent, Android 82 percent).
About 80 percent of developers say they are interested in developing for the iPad.
Developers indicated they were most interested in developing eBooks, entertainment/media applications, business applications, medical applications, and education applications.
