Hi Dan,
I see andorid application in the context of intents not like web server and browser kind of app. If I understand your inputs correctly, I would have wished intent data access should be as simple as who the servlets share the data of http session with me not worrying about serialization, parcelable.. > I don't see what you dislike about this Basically due to lack of authentic expertise in andorid :) and its api.. similar to my early days of web programing..
