If we were trying to hedge your bets on your programming future would you devote all your time to becoming a Javascript Ninja or would you switch to IOS development.

Re: Javascript or Objective C?
#3I hate Objective-C and I'm not in fond of iOS, so clearly JavaScript. Moreover, it'll probably become (if it's not already) a general purposes language soon, so it wouldn't be wasted time.

#4I have learned both languages in the past year. Objective-C is better in most ways (and not in a few others). But that doesn't matter.
If you're serious about mobile right now, you really have to just get over whatever is holding you back and learn Objective-C. If you don't, you won't be able to write apps that can use the camera, load quickly, feel native, etc. And the big one is that you won't be on the App Store. I don't think this is going to change anytime soon, and it wouldn't be good for your users (if and when you have them) if it did (power consumption, look and feel, access to the accelerometer and camera, etc. all matter on mobile).
