which is best option and why. I'm good in windows application development and web development with c# and ms sql database.
Please tell me from where i should start? I'll be very thankful to you.

For windows mobile you can develop in C# using the .Net compact framework, this is very similar to the full .Net framework so it is an easy starting point as you can use your existing Visual Studio to develop.

iPhone development requires, apple developer certificate (£60 if you want to deploy to a device/upload to the app store) an OS X.5 or better Apple Mac computer and there you need to use their IDE (XCode) and program in a language called Objective C.... this is a fairly difficult thing to learn if your only experience is .Net

Don't know about Flex, never use it myself.

Start by googling it.

Regards,

Mark

No. Not unless you are thinking about MONO.... and that's no good.
