You can use the C# derivate Vala. Look here: http://live.gnome.org/Vala and http://live.gnome.org/Vala/HildonSample. The advantage of Vala is, that it compiles to C code and so produces more or less very fast executables.

I don't know if you're familiar with mono, but it's some sort of framework to be able to code/run C# on non-windows systems. Someone succeeded in porting it to Maemo, but I don't know what it's current status is.
Find the thread about it here.

Edit: downside is, if anyone wants to use your application, they need to have mono runtime installed... (previous poster was faster than me and might have suggested a better alternative )
