I went to Python because it was very close to VFP. That said I don't like javascript (even using jQuery). So if I'm forced to use javascript then pyjamas looks much better. But the pyjamas project is still young and will need much more devel. With reference to your last statement I don't understand. All the UI code is separate from the biz (model) etc... ????? I, in fact was able to get QT to work as the UI for Dabo (just opened a form) by redirecting the UI call from wx to QT.

But like you, I would like to see other ports - mainly QT. If we had QT - today we would have native android, iphone, iPad, Andriod-pads. Yes both the android and iOS projects still need devel. time but they are coming along. Of course you don't need Dabo for QT they do have a model that works very well. pyside 1.0 was release this month and works. pySide is free and open source. The only question I have about QT is what is Nokia going to do with it in the future.
