TW uses "non-standard" routines to save because "standard" javascript
doesn't let you save a file LOCALLY. This is considered an important
security feature. Using java is a way to get around this limitation.
Just to be precise, TiddlyWiki uses browser-specific routines for saving
local files where available (Firefox, IE), falling back to a Java applet
(TiddlySaver) for browsers where no such APIs is provided.

You might ask the people on the android forums if they know of any way
for a javascript code to save a file to the *local* machine.
TiddlyWiki's file-saving capabilities could be extended to use whatever
JavaScript API is available on the respective platform. One option would
be using HTML5 storage, though that would make the data somewhat less
portable[1].
there are all sorts of applications that save *REMOTELY*. Indeed,
if you can run javascript, then its probably possibly to access and
save changes to a tiddlyspot.com location, for instance
That should indeed be possible. There's also the option of running a
local server (directly on the phone) to provides persistence. For
example, some people are running TiddlyWeb on the iPhone[2].
