I have done some investigation on this. I do not believe it is possible without changes to Android for us to develop and applet version of Jmol that will work within the Android browsers. That said, an Android App version of Jmol is feasible, but will require some work as Android uses a different set of GUI primitives than the SWING and AWT Java tools that Jmol uses. I think this is a worthy effort, but maybe we need some support (Google?).
