    RW> I believe Android apps are written in Java. If so that so, then    
    RW> MultiMail and SyncTerm would need to be ported to Java as well.   
      
   Yes, I think a lot of what you see on the android is Java. Someone gave me   
   another option but it was just as alien to me.   
      
   A couple problems I see with MultiMail on the android is Zip and Unzip. Maybe   
   that is already there, I'm not sure. We'd also need a way to down/upload mail   
   packets and replies.   
      
   I was reading in another area a couple people are running BBSs on their   
   phones. If those BBSs are capable of creating QWK packets they might be   
   looking for an OLR to go with it.. :)
