<br>into the very core of the hardware & software. I expect to someday see<br>Android applications integrated into OpenMoko. Android appears to be<br>just a virtual machine sandbox that sits on top of a Linux core. I
<br>don't see most Android based phones makers willingly giving access<br>outside of the Android API and runtime or taking user feedback seriously.<br><br>My question is why doesn't Google release the Android runtime & API in a
<br>form that can be easily integrated and run on OpenMoko or any other<br>Linux? It's just built on top of a linux kernel & a bunch of standard<br>libs. Someone please ask that for me.<br><div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c">
