Good day all experts,<br />
<br />
I need some advise :)<br />
<br />
We currently have an educational tool for Windows OS only.<br />
Our goal is to port this software to mobile as well. IOW: Android, iPhone &amp;&nbsp;BlackBerry.<br />
<br />
Some background about the software.<br />
The software teaches people a language skill. And consists of lots of videos. That is basically the core of the app. It also contains a test, tips and information section.<br />
<br />
1. So I would firstly want to get good advise on what would be the best to develop something of this nature in for mobile? Is native apps better? Making more money in terms of mobile? Or would there be more benefit in something like phonegap?<br />
<br />
2. What would be the best approach for utilizing the videos on mobile? What is best practice in this regard? Should the app connect to internet and download video on user's demand? What design architecture would you recommend? <br />
<br />
Thanks in advance :)

Mobile Developmet: Android, iOS &amp; BlackBerry

Mobile web development, also known as responsive web design, is an approach to web design aimed at crafting sites to provide an optimal viewing and interaction experience—easy reading and navigation with a minimum of resizing, panning, and scrolling—across a wide range of devices (from desktop computer monitors to mobile phones). A site designed with RWD adapts the layout to the viewing environment by using fluid, proportion-based grids, flexible images, and CSS3 media queries.

Responsive Web

Android is a mobile operating system developed by Google, based on the Linux kernel and designed primarily for touchscreen mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. Android's user interface is based on direct manipulation, using touch gestures that loosely correspond to real-world actions, such as swiping, tapping and pinching, to manipulate on-screen objects, along with a virtual keyboard for text input. In addition to touchscreen devices, variants of Android are also used on notebooks, game consoles, digital cameras, televisions, automobiles and other electronics. Applications are usually developed in Java programming language using the Android software development kit (SDK), but other development environments are also available, including Delphi, Ruby and Visual Studio (using C++).

Android

iOS is a mobile operating system developed by Apple; it is a derivative of the Mac OS X desktop operating system, with which it shares many (but not all) common frameworks and other components. These include Cocoa Touch, the Mach/Darwin/XNU kernel and code from the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD). Each iOS application runs in its own secure sandbox to prevent altering other applications, the operating system, or any other data.
