There is also a multi-touch enabled version of the IceCube Player that let the user navigate the 3D model using multi-finger gesture and interact with the 2D widgets.

When it comes to the Oracle lawsuit against Google regarding Android, many sites and news outlets say that “Android applications are written in Java”.

In my previous post on “OSGi Compliance”, I discussed the idea of making libraries ready for OSGi without depending on OSGi directly. In light of BJ’s comment I will refer from now on to OSGi “Readiness” rather than Compliance, as the latter term is easily confused with the concept of a framework implementation that complies with the OSGi specification.
