Has anyone done or does anyone knows of a way to use Delphi/Prism to develop for the Android os?

Is it somehow possible to use the Delphi language (or Prism if absolutely necessary) to develop programs for the Android platform ?

Any starting point ?

Android applications are Java applications. There is a native SDK which should be use for particular needs and doesn't allow to build full applications, the application API is a Java API. Unless you have specific needs (i.e. portability), the best way to develop Android applications is using Java. IMHO using other tools that usually lag behind the main ones just to code with a different language is a waste of time.

No for the moment, but soon, check this link for more info about how develop android applications using the Object-Pascal language the Delphi-Prism programming language (wich is based on the Delphi language), with MonoDroid.

...and will soon be available from our friends at Embarcadero, but it will work with said release. So if you’re a Delphi Prism customer, or just have a fondness for Pascal syntax, keep an eye out here – more info will be available soon, including templates & other support files.

You mean Object Pascal. I don't think it is currently possible. I don't think that crosscompiler exists...
