I don't think the wiki page I posted is inaccurate, all the stuffthere is valid AFAIK, but it is simply very incomplete. A lot moreshould be written, and also note that there are 2 different ways: 1> Via NDK combining native Pascal + Java2> Via JVM compiler The wiki I posted is only for approach 1, even a link to a fullcompilable example is posted there (thought it is for OpenGL).

Thanks for that, I admit that I found what was on the wiki confusing: it's never clear what's obsolete and what's merely incomplete.
So I think that what you're saying is that both approaches are still viable, but you favour the first.
For anybody else following this saga, I've now talked to the vehicle and the utility I'm using appears to run at 600 bps, not 800 so I'm probably not going to have to modify serial.pp. But some of the results are a bit odd and the author's had to use a lot of carefully tweaked timings which suggests that something's not quite right... 750 Baud, anybody? :-)
