I love CodeIgniter for PHP but every time I peek into RoR I feel like home. The main turn off for me so far was the deployment overhead. With CodeIgniter you can just carry your entire web app in a thumb drive and plug it into any machine that has the basics (webserver, database server etc.) setup. With RoR I felt the deployment is more of an overhead. Dealing with SSH scripts and such haven't felt comfortable to me yet and I have gone back to CodeIgniter for its simplicity and so far there wasn't much of a disappointment. Pretty much everything can be done in CodeIgniter it seems, one way or the other. Having said that I completely agree that RoR would be the way to go given the elegance of Ruby and the Rails framework. Will surely give it a try couple more times until I feel comfortable dealing with all the aspects of RoR. Until then CodeIgniter for me...
