I think windows 8 is going to effect Android market share, at least if this post is true.

I don't think people can afford to be loyal to the Microsoft morphing monster any longer. They are broken and Steve isn't the person to fix it.
Who would of thought PHP would have been as popular as it is?
kryton9:
PHP once you use it for awhile is not bad. It just takes a few days to get used to it. I spend a few weeks setting up a webserver from my home to see how it all worked about 8 years ago and really got into it PHP hot and heavy then and was impressed that you could do so much with it and javascript. But I just didn't have a fast enough upload bandwidth to use it. So I moved over to web hosted servers.
It will be interesting to see how things shake out the next 2 years. I am sure Google is working behind the scenes to get over the non unified world of android out there. I do get a lot of errors on my android devices, but luckilly it just crashes the app and not the whole device.

--- Quote from: Liam Green-Hughes ---Hi everyone,
I have had a go at making a version of SL4A that is for Android Honeycomb devices, especially the Asus EEE Pad Transformer. The APK for my version is attached and the source code and change history can be found at: http://code.google.com/r/liamgreenhughes-sl4a-tf101/. This version is designed to fit in with the whole Honeycomb user experience so you will notice that it looks a bit different. Some functions have been extended to add support for some of the features found on these devices such as the front camera, high-def video and the extra battery in the EEE Pad's keyboard. Some screenshots are below. The Triggers functionality doesn't quite work properly yet but the rest should be usable.
Comments and feedback very welcome!
