Andrea, thanks for your answer!

That was my thought also...

Yes, but the demos were made with acceptable applications. I was
really wondering if an application similar to Quaqe for example will
run smoothly on Android (from what I know Quaqe is native code right
now). Secondly, the guidelines page (http://code.google.com/android/
toolbox/performance.html) advise the user not to write highly object-
oriented code so my presumption is that these kind of applications
won't run very fast on Android.
