ScriptBasic for Android
Support:
I was checking into Android emulators that support tablet size screens and physical controls. I was happy to learn that I could create an AVD and specify device characteristics.
I found this in the Android Developer Guide that might help with GUI layout and design strategies.

Thanks for the links John. My interest as you might know currently is in game development and possible future work with robotics, the pc is still the platform for me.
I do like my tablet for reading, surfing and watching videos while trying to get to sleep :)

I want to thank you for being one of the first to join in on the bleeding edge of Android (remote) scripting. I think ScriptBasic has an advantage due to it's small footprint and ease of use. Allowing weekend programmers to script their devices to their needs from anywhere is bound to attract attention. It's still early and the DVM extension module in it's infancy. It would be great to see the ScriptBasic project grow with users and developers.
BTW
The SB dev team has two directions going with the ARM version of ScriptBasic. Steve is working on a native ARM compile of SB while Armando is using the Android NDK. Steve has isolated the looping FUNCTION/SUB issue to an assembler bug in the toolchain.

Cool screenshot John.
Android gained market share as symbian and blackberry lost some.

Arm is soon going to be in the new Arduino, already is in the beaglebone and soon to be available rasberry pi. Everything is changing at such a pace!

Your developers at scriptbasic are set for the future. I will still be testing stuff that you come up with. It was lots of fun going through what we did the last few weeks.
