Hi Pau,

> is it going to be an Android version?

We don't currently have any plans for an Android version. The user interaction 
models for desktop and mobile devices are very different. The Android SDK is 
optimized for creating an experience on a mobile device (small screen, no 
mouse, small or onscreen keyboard), whereas Pivot is optimized for the desktop 
(much larger screen, keyboard, and mouse). However, since both Android and 
Pivot are based on Java, you can potentially share some common code between 
your various client applications.

Pivot 1.5 supports a load/store data binding model that is ideally suited to 
REST-based applications, which also use a load (GET) and store (POST/PUT) 
model; see the tutorial for an example:

  http://pivot.apache.org/tutorials/data-binding.html

Pivot 2.0 supports an additional dynamic data binding model that allows a 
caller to declaratively create an association between two values; updates to 
the source value are automatically reflected in the destination. For example, 
the text of the label below will be automatically updated whenever the user 
changes the selection in the list button:

  <ListButton bxml:id="listButton" listData="['Zero', 'One', 'Two', 'Three']"/>
  <Label bxml:id="listButtonLabel" text="${listButton.selectedItem}"/>

Hope this helps.

Greg
