This isn't really about PHP sucking. It's scripting languages vs non scripting languages.
For some reason people feel less manly if all the can do is script.
Programming is programming. No one is forcing anyone to write crappy PHP code. PHP does not have to be written like an old ASP page where you hope in and out of PHP tags. Modernize how you code PHP all you like. I started out with Perl->PHP->C#->C++. When I am coding in PHP I can replicate practices learned and use in other languages.
Choose the tool that suits the task. There is no one answer for everything.
They are both built on top of Linux. I agree with you, that Android feels more like a Winmo style interface. I find WebOS to be more elegant and less computer like.

I would have thought for sure that this project would include building a hotel that is a 1:1 scale model of one of the Enterprises.
This can already be done.

WebOS SDK/PDK supports : HTML5(HTML/css/javascript) | c/c++
Andriod SDK/NDK supports : Java | c/c++
I can at least say that WebOS is super easy to develop for.
