If you wanted to broadest platform support, I'd suggest looking at
WebGL instead, even though it's bleeding edge. As Android and iOS are so
different from each other (Programming language, API etc), the amount of
effort to build something specific for one platform would exhaust you
from building something for the other.
There are several JavaScript frameworks that sit on top of WebGL and
there are some interesting demos around the Interwebs, the performance
is quite impressive for something running in the browser, currently
Mozilla Firefox 4 and Google Chrome 11 are the first out with decent
implementations, Apple and Opera have said they will implement WebGL as
part of their HTML5 canvas implementation. The chromeexperiments website
allows you to see the source code for different aspects, the code looks
very familiar and quite simple.

What Every C/C++ and Fortran developer Should Know!
Read this article and learn how Intel has extended the reach of its
next-generation tools to help Windows* and Linux* C/C++ and Fortran
developers boost performance applications - including clusters.
