Ted, your third “win” for developers isn’t actually anything new. Developers are already able to do all the things you say, the difference is that they need to purchase it from Xamarin rather than buy it from Microsoft in the future. – Well maybe Microsoft will make it free (at least in part) or build it into the cost of MSDN. Either way it’s not anything new. The potential win might be a cost saving though.
D’oh! Sorry, folks, I was just listening to it now, and realized I made a mental transposition between “Samsung” and (what I meant to say) “Samsonite”. Needless to say, Samsung does not make luggage, contrary to what I may have implied. 🙂
