While development may be moving mobile RubyMotion is actually moving somewhat desktop-bound: latest builds support OS X desktop app building. It's a lovely replacement for MacRuby, which isn't building post-LLVM. Meanwhile, more along mobile lines, RubyMotion has promised Android support. iOS templated apps will be able to share classes etc. with Android templated apps. Pretty exciting stuff for native. The cost of a RubyMotion license has to me seemed a little steep when piled atop the other OS X fees, but taken in context and with derived value (for me, namely staying in vim and out of XCode and Eclipse) I think the price makes on the whole.
