Into Android dev at the moment;

The UI draw side of things is not a matter of mimicking AWT on
Android, but that Pivot has abstracted away its own needs into a small
module, which is pluggable for AWT and possibly Android. That may be a
lot of work since I doubt it is the way the project initially got
going. If that was in place, Android's API is pretty neat and most
things are easily mapped.
That said, if Pivot was OpenGL (ES level), then it could work 'out of
the box', but I guess that is even more work...
