Developing Android Applications on PPC Mac?
08 08 2009
By the end of this year my mobile contract expires and so I went on a journey for looking at what will be my next mobile phone. I currently have several candidates in pipe but let's talk about that later. My current favorite is a phone based on Android. I really like the features of the OS and it offers exactly what I am looking for: an open API for developing and playing around.
So I took a look at the Android SDK and got surprised that it is not supported to buil Android apps on a Power PC mac!? Too bad, since it would be pretty cool to use my iBook on vacation and more to develop android apps. But ok, so I have to be pleased with the linux version and hope that Google will think about this. However I think that support for PPC mac will never come, since all new Macs are Intel based.
