Extremely interesting. So the Basic actually compiled into Java code?

Changing the topic slightly:

Are you planning to develop for your Nexus or will you just be a comsumer?

I've started learning to program  the Motorola Xoom - I already have a
couple of potential 
clients who are interested in using them for data capture.

I was dreading having to develop my Java skills from a very low and
half-forgotten base.  
Then I came across Basic4Android  http://www.basic4ppc.com/

For any ex- BASIC  developer (VB/VBA/PowerBASIC or whatever), it's
brilliant.
