Looks like they compiled it natively, which is great. However, what they did is by far the easiest part of the whole business. Because now they have to write Python bindings for the Android API. Not that it's such a huge API, but this is going to be quite a challenge just the same.

Without Android bindings, there's very little point - you can run Python console apps, and there isn't even a console on which end users can see them run. :-)
