Rescuers are working really hard through day and night, also getting help from Taiwan, Japan, UK, USA, Ausie, Singapore. So far not so good down south. Live stream is still going on air. half of the trapped Japanese students may be fear to be dead under the rubble of the classroom. Hundred of thousands of people left homeless, no foods, no money, no power, no water, no sewage system, cars got sink into the ground causing by waterfaction. The mount broke off and tones of debres are scattering kilometres away from the origin and some are as big as a pick up truck got toss 1km away and went through houses and destroyed them completely.

Death told is still climbing from 75 current but is yet able to speculate the final amount, it's only rising. The priminister has declared the state of Emergency, 1st ever in NZ history. Damage was told to be greater than 15billions, the whole city will be demolished and rebuild.

39hours have passed and yet 300 still nowhere to be found. It is the 2nd biggest city in NZ. the darkest day of NZ history.

Selling their VM & libs to the end-users would be one way of recuperating a *little* (I admit) bit of cost from their demo. For sure, it won't be the same level of money than it would be from a operator agreement, but still better than nothing. The real issue would be the maintenance costs, but that's a different issue.

I'm trying to understand how to recompile dalvik for n900 looking at android-x86 and source.android.com, but that's not an easy task to achieve as a side project with few hours here and there...
