Multimobile Development: Building Applications for any Smartphone are essential books for software developers looking to build applications that run natively on iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Windows Mobile and BlackBerry. I'll take you step-by-step through the process of building the same application on each, learning the differences between and the relative strengths and weaknesses of each platform as we go. No magic intermediate layers of obfuscation - by the time you get to the end you'll be an expert at developing for any of the major smartphone platforms using each vendor's preferred toolset and approach.

Presented in two parts, Part 1 takes you through iOS and Android, Part 2 takes you through Windows Phone 7, Windows Mobile, BlackBerry and HTML.

First volume of Multimobile Develoment almost ready for press
Apress' team has been working incredibly hard over the past few weeks to get the content for the first Multimobile Development volume ready to go to press. It's all looking good to hit the shelves/racks/disks in October.

The book will now be presented in two volumes - mainly because there was too much to say to fit it all into one. Volume 1 will cover iOS and Android. Volume 2 will cover Windows Phone, Windows Mobile, Blackberry and HTML5. There will also be some free chapters hitting this site in the next few weeks.
