Anyone seen any android phones ?

The only ones I know are either horridly expensive (the German phone), provider locked AND not available here, the other one (openmoko) ... well coughing is to dieing from a HIV infection like buggy is to ... Oh and that one's bankrupt too.

I'd love to get unbelievably exited about this phone operating system. Except ... it's got a bit of an emacs problem ... this phone operating system does sooooo many things sooooo great ... except it doesn't seem to operate any actual phones ...

C API yet?

Do they have a C or C++ API yet or is it still Java? I'm not interested in using a memory hogging interpreted language on a mobile phone.
