I've run into this issue as well. As Ernst mentioned, many in the Android community (myself included) have been asking to backport this. The only thing stopping it frrom happening is Oracles agressive post sun-acquisition... which involves suing everyone for a return on their investment...
Aside from a rework of jess, or waiting for the courts oracle vs google decision, I have settled with an ear containing jess server side. Take inputs from the smartphone, crunch in the rule engine server side, and have a thin client on the android phone polling the server app for results. Its a shame given the android phones and os are more than capable with providing a good ammount of ram and flexibility to use a rule engine. But at this point in time, business is holding things up. Check the android feature issue tracker, as the addition of the bean class is in there. You can subscribe to that threads updates and hope for the best.
