Android needs applications

[Schmidt András]

That's exactly what I was thinking about, just I could not express 
myself so clear :-).
It would be nice to have a compatibility layer on top of OpenMoko to run 
Android applications. There are going to be many Android applications 
created after Google's announcement, so it would be nice to make them 
available on OpenMoko.
