Regarding console - I guess this link has to do with how to display a web page in native app (I asked a mobile developer friend of mine) - http://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView.html And this ovirt page can help with spice client for html5 ? http://www.ovirt.org/Features/SpiceHTML5 Cheers, Yair > > > > > > Greg Sheremeta > > > Red Hat, Inc. > > > Sr. Software Engineer, RHEV > > > Cell: 919-807-1086 > > > gsher...@redhat.com > > > _______________________________________________ > > > Devel mailing list > > > de...@ovirt.org > > > http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/devel > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Users mailing list > > Users@ovirt.org > > http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users > > > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list > Users@ovirt.org > http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users > _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
