Haven't done much Mobile Apps beside iOS recently, but IIRC, it was less a pain to debugging with XCode than with Eclipse for Android / BlackBerry.

Interesting. Last I used Xcode was a while ago, and it really left a foul taste in my mouth. But they have updated some -- could be worth a look at again. (I was really excited when I got my Mac and pumped up to get busy in Xcode, so I might have had some unrealistic expectations. Probably near about time to give it a shot again.)

hwtan:
I don't know about you, but what I recall was that iOS / Mac Apps requires a little "paradigm" shift on the developer's part at the beginning.

Objective C and the iOS framework hides the routing of messages and the loading of objects which I noticed confuses developers whom has a strong background in engineering (e.g. if you are used to knowing how control pass over from the event queue / message loop to your code, etc.).

The tool itself was fine for me, especially with the introduction of Xcode 4.
