WikiNotes showed up in the app store - not sure if it's the apps-for-android one, but it's simple and useful and probably replaces my current scribbled-on-paper notes pretty well; the one thing it's missing is live web sync of some kind (but at least I can back it up by rsync
ing the micro-SD card, like I do with the rest of the content.)
RingDroid also wins - it's a nice simple visual "clip bits of an mp3 to make ring tones" app, and so I finally have the initial beeps of Feuer Frei as a notification sound - something I've had on my list for years, and the 6630 could have done but I never got around to learning a sound clip editor...
As far as coding, I rewrote MMMRavs to dynamically build the UI in Java instead of using static XML layout. Mostly a learning experience, I'm not sure I want to keep that code path but it's pretty straightforward (learning to use SpannableStrings
was particularly likely to have future use.) Of course, what I really want is to specify most of it from a downloaded (and cached) file, and I could write all of that in minutes with a reasonably complete python port... perhaps my next experiment should be to produce the java source for a single instance from a descriptor file, using python, just to think through the data structures. Given examples like Pyjamas and java2python, this might not be as complicated as it sounds...
