I wonder how complete their native ARM->x86 translator is. I'd expect to start seeing a lot of unexplainable bugs in native apps once Medfield phones start shipping in volume. Another side effect: presuming it's dependent on the cloud service w/o any local fallback, there's no way for apps distributed outside Play (Amazon, etc) to be recompiled w/o the developer doing so manually.
(Note this is mainly relevant for games; the vast majority of other apps are pure Java and don't need any translation)
- zobzu 15y ago"hardware emulation" that's kinda cool tho. I wonder how fast it is. I also wonder how many parts of the benchmark software uses some ARM EABI binaries (JNI or NDK).
