I developed a Xamarin+MvvmCross application (it's only released for iOS right now, with Android coming soon, the company outsourced some Indians to do the UI work on it). I had negative experiences at first when we started, but it appears Xamarin started actually listening to customers and fixing tools. Get used to emailing ios@ and android@ with full logs and eventually support engineers will get to know you (and know that you're not emailing over stupid "HOW DO I PROGRAM?" issues). Every issue I've had with the code base has been fixed within a few days. The productivity of the toolset far outweighs it's negatives.

MvvmCross supports Observable Collections for both iOS and Android.

This is an app using MvvmCross and Xamarin, with lots of observable collections.
