With .NET, executables are fairly small. Every application shares the .NET Framework, so the applications don’t have their own copy of the framework. MonoTouch is not built into the iPhone. MonoTouch applications must have their own copy of the framework. MonoTouch is compiled into your application. The result is that MonoTouch applications are larger on disk than a comparable .NET application. Think starting at 5 megabytes for the MT framework and going up from there vs very small with .NET exes.
