Arabic Language support is currently starred to the top of the issues
on the Android project page on the Google Code website with currently
1681 stars and hundreds and hundreds of comments:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/list

This issue was big on the issues list and then got a huge boost after
this post on "Ardroid: Android for Arab Users" tech blog:
http://ardroid.com/2010/01/07/arabic-on-android/

currently the admins on the google code page are asking people to
bring the discussion here but it would be hard since the efforts are
already fragmented and it won't be easy to get the same overwhelming
response on a google group.

My point is that Arabic is in huge demand, at least having the ability
to display Arabic characters and providing an Arabic keyboard are of
utmost important to huge slice of potential market. I've seen so many
calls for Arabic support but nothing official from Google. Quite
frustrating really.
