And perhaps, if you have enough resources, abstract yourself from most of the API. Study the one you'll most likely use, create a C/C++/ObjC wrapper framework and program your app code in your own framework. This allows you to transfer your code to a different system more easily. Esp. if you ever want to go crossplatform (even though it probably means not taking 100% advantage of the features).
