Alrighty. I took the plunge today and submitted the app to the Google Play Store. It will take a few hours according to Google to show up.
For future discussions, I think it would be nice to use the official thread for issues/updates. I'll be updating the iphone logic in parallel in the future, so one single thread to watch would be nice.

What Android has that the iphone doesn't:
1: House rules menu that lets you choose which rules the ai follows.
2: Ability to play straight 42 with unforced bidding.
3: Ability to play both forced and unforced nello bidding.
4: You can now big Splash/Plunge. Splash adds 1 mark to your marked bid. Plunge adds 2.
5: The computer can now bid nello.
6: Various AI updates that will be applied to the iphone in the upcoming weeks.
For the uploading it to the Amazon store tomorrow for you Kindle Fire users.
What's coming in the future:
1: Nello Doubles low
2: Stat tracking
3: Multiplayer.
If you've been following the iphone thread, you'll see that the best way to help improve the AI is to send me a screen shot with the tiles face up. Though this is pretty much based on the iPhone logic, it still may have the occasional hole that needs fixing. The nice thing about the Android store is that the app gets updated very quickly once I submit an update.
