Does it matter whether it's called Dalvik or JVM? I hope so (and yet doubt it), because Java on my Symbian phone equals slow and memory hungry. It will also be interesting to see how the performance will be influenced by the fact that all the programs will be Java. On the desktop/server you can get away with a memory hungry Java app to gain speed, but on a device... Google didn't have much choice with programming languages and API: Nokia bought Qt, .NET belongs to Microsoft, and that left them with Java. They should probably add a Python interpreter if they haven't already. Nokia has had reasonable success with this approach.
