Android Development

I’ve been doing some Android development on my… ahem… ‘holiday’. It is a very nice operating system to use and develop for. The documentation is pretty good and the samples excellent. Of course it is a shame about the Java. I see there have been some attempts to use Python but these seem to have halted because of the advent of the Android Scripting Environment. But the ASE looks a little dumbed down and high-level. For my purposes I need finer-grained access to the OS. I’ll persevere with Java until I’ve got a fuller understanding of the system, then I may look at Python.
