Should I choose MvvmLight or MvvmCross on a new pr

问题:

I am trying to find the main difference between MVVMlight and MVVMCrossthose frameworks. I am planning to develop for Android and Windows Phone. I will use the Xamarin framework. (and Xamarin.Forms)

The project should be a vehicle tracking application that talks to Azure-run server. The app itself will be (as usual in the beginning of a project) very simple (start, stop, keep recorded locations).

Why should I use one over the other?

Other details: VS2012

Completely up to you. People have gotten MvvmCross working with Forms here but still early days. Do you need any of the nice plugins of MvvmCross? Will there be screens that you'll need to manage per platform because they are too complicated for Forms? I don't think there is a right or wrong answer here....
