That is a disappointment.  Given Android's start as an offshoot of
linux, you would think it would be more straightforward.  This would
also enable (I think) LyX to run on netbooks, since AFAIK they are
Android machines --- and since they have real keyboards they would make
a usable platform.  I do believe TeX is available in some form.  I also
have no idea why porting to the iPad would be significantly harder than
a Mac.  I am, perhaps, too naive.
