        I agree with Joylon's comments in other forums.

        Some guesses based on previous EMB history: it will be 12
        months until we see an Android version (XE5).  Which will
        prove to be very raw.  When a usable version comes out in XE6,
        XE5 Android support will then be claimed to be a "technology
        preview".  You can also expect that some excuse will be found
        for you to need to pay extra all the way along the treadmill.

        Like Joylon, I fell for the marketing material that came out
        with XE2,  expecting that for the upgrade price I would
        receive (within 6 months or so)  a product that would provide
        support for Win32/Win64/IOS/Android.  "Bait and Switch" by any
        other name.

        I've been a supporter of Delphi for a long time, and have
        bought many upgrades over the years.  All the recent upgrades
        I've purchased have _never_ used for other than minor
        experimental code, whilst their newer licensing mechanisms
        remain a pain in the rear.

        I certainly won't be holding my breath and watching 1000's of
        other developers grabbing market share whilst waiting, and
        waiting for EMB to actually ship the product they promised as XE2.

        appealing.

            Why not program in Java which is free offered by Google?
            It is fun to program in a different language other than
            Delphi.
            If you want the speed, you can program in C#. I am
            writing code in C for android which is free too using
            ndk-build. :-)

            Just my 2 cents

                I suspect no one will tell you publicly. Perhaps

                It would be nice to see a road map.

                    Hi All.
                    I have had a look around and I am looking for
                    SOME sort of idea when EMB. are looking at
                    releasing the Android stuff? I am trying to
                    decide whether or not to buy the Software
                    assurance for the Support & Maintenance - Mobile
                    Add-On Pack for Delphi XE4 Professional which I
                    am about to buy.
                    Anyone offer any time frames - roughly. if its
                    not in the next 12 mths I wont bother.

                    Thanks, Jeremy
