Only speaking for myself, but I wouldn't touch java if it wasn't the language for android development.

As an Android developer and, I have to confess, advocate, I have always found Android's Java origins to have been a mistake. It is an unlikable language that did nothing to further the platform, but brought a lot of resource expense with it. I honestly wish Oracle wins this suit and Google gets a sunsetting period to actually bake out a credible NDK API (e.g. no JInvoke BS).
