James on Android
Good writeup by James Pearce, CTO at dotMobi, on Google Android – as told and used by its own developers. I met James at the Mobile 2.0 event, and he is a sharp guy, so you should listen to him 
.
I will say though that Android handsets will come out probably in 6 months or so. And I will reiterate that at the end of the day, the operator still rules (it is their networks), and that all the theory (and wishful thinking) introduced by Android will be put to the test very shortly.
Android is definitely a shakeup to the mobile Java community (more than just “shaking things up a little”), but let’s remember that shakeups are a good thing (typically); more about this on another post.

From the title I thought it is “James Gosling”
Heh…
I agree with you, this a big shakeup, not only in mobile world, also in Java. Android chose to ignore Sun, JCP and all mobile JSRs and also use some classes from Apache Armony JDK.
I think there is not an official position from Sun, but i’m waiting for it.
Maybe this will accelarate JavaFX on mobile phones.
