We actually have something for you : our ELIPS Studio 3 plugin for Flex Builder (see http://developer,openplug.com) does compile AS3 to native code and we have implemented AS3 APIs that extend Flex components to expose the iPhone's native widgets Ain't that cool ? And by the way it supports other mobile platforms following the same principle: Symbian, Windows Mobile and soon Android Hello Nick

Ain’t that cool ?

To hate objective-c THAT much that you'd pay a grand not to use it? That's rediculous. I would say just learn objective-c, make the jump learning is good! Look into cocos2d, a weekend with that and you'll be making stuff in no time :) http://onedayitwillmake.com http://littlephysics.com The monotouch SDK cost $1,000.00 USD.

And for small games and silly promo apps, it's a great idea. Unity is still the best 3D option. If you want to use all the native stuff but don't like obj-c, you can now use C# with the amazing Monotouch - http://monotouch.net/ It’s another option basically.
