What's the best approach for developing a BlackBerry web application (WebWorks Application)

I'm already a Junior asp.net/c# developer and I know that java is pretty similar to C#.

I've considered using two methods:

so which one of those are the best approach? what are the advantages/disadvantages for every approach? do you suggest other solutions for developing a blackberry version of my asp.net website?

I'm facing the same choice, and from what I see, it doesn't matter. You're developing web pages with additional API's interfaces that allow the WebKit browser to take advantage of the Blackberry API's.

It doesn't look like WebWorks applications run either Java OR .NET code. Instead, WebWorks apps are made up of HTML, css, and javascript.

However, if you're planning on doing standard Blackberry apps, you'll want to go with Java. This will also help to prepare you for developing on the Android platform. Java isn't going away any time soon, and with the rise in popularity of the Android platform, I think that the demand for Java development is going to be on the rise, compared to .NET. (I say this as someone who LOVES .NET and does NOT want to re-learn Java, but is doing so to ensure that I'll be able to compete in the job market.)
