Great. I realized the power of Android a while ago. Its a great framework, pretty fast and responsive, has a Linux kernel, and you can write apps in Java. It has the potential to be a great desktop/laptop OS. To me, this is the realization of a Java Desktop system which I have been waiting forever. For those who consider java virtual machine slow, take a look at this benchmark: <a href="http://www.stefankrause.net/wp/?p=9#more-9" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://www.stefankrause.net/wp/?p=9#more-9</a rel="nofollow">" target="_blank">http://www.stefankrause.net/wp/?p=9#more-9</a></a> Llvm which is a virtual machine, comes almost close to gcc 4.2.3 compiled code. What we need is an efficient virtual machine for Android and it will be as fast as any other OS. Keep'em coming ! Great. I realized the power of Android a while ago.
