I'll second that.

Watched the video and i'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Two things that keep us from going on Android today:

- We've been porting/optimizing for the last 5 months, we'd like to code a few features :)

- Android fragmentation is scary

I think a lot of the Android fragmentation talk is just fear-mongering in all honesty. If you pick a few flagship Android devices - Galaxy Tab + Motorola Xoom (for tablets) and Samsung S2 + HTC Desire (for phones) - I think you'll be ok. Just make sure you specify which devices are specifically supported and add more as you get feedback. The Android store lets you specifically target certain hardware and over the many years of using an Android phone, I've only had 1 app not work on my phone. I had paid for it, so I refunded the purchase, the app was deleted - no issues :-)

Still, I appreciate the concerns and I also appreciate the desire to implement new features. Bug fixing is no fun. If you do release it for Android though, make sure to post on HN. :-D

Yeah, that's pretty much the plan, only support the big devices. That also gives us an excuse to buy them all (who doesn't like unboxing a new toy :)

We'll probably get to it later this year, my main phone is a Galaxy Nexus and I'm bummed to not be able to fly with it :P
