You did not read closely enough. I never -said- Android was a JME platform. Rather, I said that BlackBerry was a JME platform, and that Android used the Java language, NOT the platform.
And yes, a JME app written for one phone has a good chance of failing on another JME phone, which is why people say that Sun's promise of "write once, anywhere" has become (at least for JME) "write once, debug everywhere";) On Sep 17, 5:21 am, Prakash Iyer <thei...@gmail.com> wrote: > I would dispute your last statement - Android is not a JME platform.
