"But maybe is this also possible with android apps give me one reason it is not."

It is possible. You just need to port Dalvik. Oh look, someone has:

"It is all linux even iOS have a piece of linux."


What? Android is just a linux kernel, it's not a linux distribution. It's not even close. At least Maemo is an offshoot of the debian linux distro, android is nothing but a kernel, a java VM, and a bunch of Google APIs.

And iOS isn't even that, it's a darwin kernel, which is derived from BSD but so heavily mucked with by Apple as to no longer be recognizable as anything but locked down crap from the black turtleneck anointed one.

ARGH!!!! The more people who spread this kind of "knowledge" around the community, the closer we are to losing real Linux on a handheld platform forever.
