I think it's possible that we could set up Jmol on the Android tablet to
run any web page that uses Jmol.js (at least if the page creates one single
applet). The difference would be that the "applet" would appear on the
right side of the screen, while the browser would appear on the left (in
landscape mode). I'm pretty sure we could have all the JavaScript
functionality of the applet -- all the buttons, links, menus, etc., except
the pop-up menu.

So, for example:

Proteopedia could load on the left, and on the right, in an independent
panel, the molecule could load and be manipulable.
Standard single-applet web pages could be loaded and have all controls
operate on the "applet" on the right.

It's really too bad Apple doesn't support this sort of development. But
there is some hope there as well, if anyone wants to take a crack at it:

What's interesting here is that JmolAndroid is the first application to use
LibJmol.jar. And LibJmol.jar could be used for C# development within the
.NET framework. I think there is nothing terribly fancy about LibJmol.jar.
The key would be to find a utility that would convert it to a C# library
module.
