Based on what little I've seen, this sounds accurate. Both Android and iOS have a large amount of features and controls that developers are used to having access to - distilling that down into a simple codebase can't be easy. It will be interesting to see if any early adopters continue to support Appcelerator; I'd love to see what their product looks like in a year or two. At the moment, my work is a little too complicated and urgent to want to rewrite anything for an immature codebase.
