Ray Cromwell has posted a blog post with video, showing how they’ve managed to run Chronoscope on the Android SDK emulator.
It required about 8 hours to get this working. Most of the time was spent finding the Android equivalents of Java2D calls, and writing 6 Java classes (the Chronoscope Canvas abstraction layered over Android Graphics API)

Ray Cromwell has just released a beta version of their open source GWT charting and visualization platform, Chronoscope. Although I don’t see anything currently there at the moment, it’s supposedly being used in Timepedia, a collaborative time-oriented search engine. You can check out Ray’s blog post for more detail on Chronoscope’s capabilities.

November 14th, 2007 - Written by in News, Using GWT
So I finally started to work on a just for fun GWT project, and the result is GSudokr, a free Sudoku game. The project allowed me to play with a lot of interesting GWT features that I hadn’t worked with before, including Internationalization, History, and a whole slew of new widgets provided by the MyGWT library. I did spend a little time trying to choose between MyGWT and , libraries which both offer similar widgets sets. GWT-Ext seems to have slightly more community support, judging by its forum activity, but in the end I went with MyGWT because it offered a nice SWT-like API which I was familiar with. After using it on this project, I think it was a good choice.
