with the arrival of android tablets especcially the high resolution nexus 10, color management in android makes strong sense. i agree that people won't pay too much attention to color management in small screen and low resolution display found in small devices such as smart phones. however the top line displays such as the one in nexus 10 (2560x1600) cry for color management. it is true that most android users do not care for it but the same goes for windows and mac users. however we have comprehensive color management features and products in those environments. the reason for that is there are enough users who care about color management in those environments to justify the support. i don't see how would that be different in the case of android tablets, some with even a much higher resolution than any pc laptop display.
