Hi Eric!
I know this thread is a little old now, but I wanted to take a look
into the same thing.
9P on Android!! Its something that could turn out to be an asset to my
project here, that I intend to do.. what's the latest update on it?
Can Google Android be used as a 9P server too, instead of just a java
or php or javascript-based client that connects to a Plan 9 Styx
server? There is this project called npfs (
http://sourceforge.net/projects/npfs/ ) but I have never tried running
a 9P fileserver and so have not a clear idea on the details here.
Npfs is in C. You could make java bindings to it, but it would
probably be more work than it's worth.
I've been using a few 9p servers from android. I have
a java library that does 9p service that I'm using. Here's
some code I published that includes the library:

Let me know if you have any questions.

Is source to your application available anywhere? I'm getting a
Android tablet and wanted to do some 9P/Plan9 hacking for it and it
sounds like you have a good starting point.

I used Charles Forsyth's 9P implementation in Java (styx-n-9p) to start a
small 9P graphical browser on Android, some weeks ago, and it seems to work
very well.
