I have been doing a lot of research to find the best way to bring a few iPad apps to market and I’ve narrowed it down to Nimblekit and Corona. Has anyone used both platforms? I would love a side by side of how they stack up against one another?

I don’ think anyone in this forum has ever used Corona.
I wonder what that is. 
What type of app are you creating?
For games, we are the it when it comes to 2D.
For business type apps, we can do a lot of biz stuff like

Nimblekit, doesn’t that use HTML and javascript, it might be easy to work with in comparison to Objective-C, but is it secure to protect IP? It is at the end of the day HTML pages served in a UIWebView as compared to OpenGL that Corona uses, so in comparing, you are comparing Apples and Bananas, two completely different things.
NimbleKit can be compared to PhoneGap, not Corona.

Hi Carlos,
Thanks for pointing out corona is capable of doing business apps as well. It would be also good to know what’s not possible with corona or not supported by corona.
I’m currently doing prototyping one business app for restaurant. As a pro subscriber i wanted to stick to corona. Looking at the links above which you have posted, I’m exploring capabilities of UI component bit more.
I had spent some time and found one of the corona user also using nimble kit.
Here is the response from him on using corona and nimble kit.
Not sure i can post the link here, if the link is not allowed, please delete it. I’m just posting here what i have found.
