IMHO:
Nowadays, Android is an OS that be in top 3 of mobile phone market.
And many of my jobs focus on a signal processing application or 
a data communication application. 
So, to develop an application for user interfacing, 
my team need to invest a learning time too much.
I think Android platform is a good answer to overcome this problem.
Especially, to use with any touch-screen panel equipments of EmbeddedARM.com.

Sincere,
