    I know that I am really late with these comments, as apparently some of the information is obsolete now, but (a) I’m so glad I watched this, because maybe I’ll soon be able to understand Android enough to write my own application, and (b) at 9:42 THE LECTOR POINTS TO *HIS* LEFT, OUR RIGHT! Teeheehahahaha!!

    Anyway, I already have two application ideas, and watching this makes me understand it’s possible and very easy to do! Thank you, Android! ^_^

    wit can the G1 play .jar and .jad

  5. Commentstrombone7   |  Monday, 08 February 2010 at 9:29 am

    Right. When talking Android just replace bytecode with ‘dalvik’. Also no .class files, its .dex.

  6. CommentsShaiSoft   |  Monday, 08 February 2010 at 10:07 am

    dalvik VM is not reading a standard bytecode? :o

  7. Commentstrombone7   |  Monday, 08 February 2010 at 10:33 am

    Ah . yah. Next time I’ll watch the whole video. He mentions Java a couple times, but Java is in the applications framework layer and the applications layer. oops. Native libraries could still be C.

  8. Commentstrombone7   |  Monday, 08 February 2010 at 10:46 am

    This was posted in Nov 2007. The layer where he mentions C and C++ is now Java. The native libraries layer. Java compiles to dalvik instead of bytecode.

    YAY linux phone

  10. Commentsarkheii   |  Monday, 08 February 2010 at 11:35 am

    Yes, thanks to Java and XML.

  11. CommentsShaiSoft   |  Monday, 08 February 2010 at 12:14 pm

    What about Java!!??

  12. Commentstelephusion   |  Monday, 08 February 2010 at 12:51 pm

    Just like IP has stood the test of time, and will for many years to come, Java and XML have matured and are now very, very ready for very, very prime time over the coming decade+.

    IP + Java + XML are the critical pillars of the evolving Web.

  13. Commentsargh523   |  Monday, 08 February 2010 at 1:35 pm

    java and xml.. didn’t technology advance the last few years?..

    What about Symbian? Looks promising, if they really do open Symbian as well. Then we have two open platforms for mobile phones. I think the more the merrier. Possibly even a fusion of the two since they are both open.

  19. Commentscrazywaters   |  Monday, 08 February 2010 at 4:17 pm

    Android is very promising. It’s only the beginning and it will become better like in any Linux distro. It’s funny that we now have AGAIN 3 platforms but in phones. Apple, M$ and Linux. But unlike M$ that has some standards and Apple that has only one piece of hardware to worry about, android is a more difficult project to deal with, since it is geared to run in as many hardware variations as possible. So we have to give the android team and Google some credit for a great engineering effort.

    What a heck are you yelling at?
    There is another meaning to “free”, on that is older than “opensource”.

    What are you talking about? It’s Open source, that means you are allowed to see all of the code put into making the OS and from that you can compile it so it’s exactly what they distribute, the only thing that will cost is the MOTHER FUCKING Service . . . But the OS is free

  24. Commentsspawnoftoaster   |  Monday, 08 February 2010 at 7:09 pm

    You can compile anything yourself, doesn’t makit free.

  25. Commentssjmulder   |  Monday, 08 February 2010 at 7:19 pm

    You’re probably able to use it for development. See, even this presentation seems to be made in Apple Keynote.
