Yes, you will need at least a FTE for each device. 1 x iphone, 1 x ipad, 1 x android, 1 x android tablet. Then if you start talking about blackberry, symbian, palm, etc. you start to look at a team of around 10 just to provide mobile access. Not good, nor bad I think. Just the way it is. HTML5 apps that outperform native mobile apps is not coming soon. Native apps are here to stay for 5+ years.
