Surprise!

Yes, Universe, you’re absolutely right. We should consider Android devices as well.

The world works in mysterious ways.  Literally as I was in the middle of writing up that last post, my Google+ feed exploded with the news that Google has released a version of Chrome for Android.  This is supergreat news for HTML5 development on Android and I’m thrilled.  Really.  I’m not at all upset that I probably need to go get myself an Android phone now, and neither is my wallet.  More to come, this is a pretty major development for HTML5 mobile apps, seriously.

[UPDATE] Mashable is pointing out that only about 1% of Android devices have Android 4.0 on them and thus can support (this release of) Chrome.  At least that makes the device testing simpler, doesn’t it?
