[bd-users] BD for android tablet

[Vance]

Hi,
I am responding to the post about porting BibleDesktop to an Android app specific for tablets. 
Unfortunately, porting a standard Java app to Android involves a lot of work. Although there are many similarities between JavaSE and the Android framework, there are huge differences also. For example, the graphics framework are completely different between the frameworks. 
In light of that, I think it would be best to put a request in to the AndBible project for a tablet version. IMHO, it would be better to have one project using JSword for Android rather than two.
Thanks,
Vance

The android crosswire app lacks some functionality of BD
I have heard that there is a way to somewhat easily port Java programs 
to the android apk
If someone knows how to do this, I would like to request an android port 
of bd
Though I like andbible I would really like to be able to use bd on my 
tablet as well.
Thank you.

My request is specifically for tablet by the way.

TIA

- joshua robison
