Android gets its mobile web server

While there are no Android devices hitting the market yet, this interesting article talks about porting the well-known Jetty Java Web Container and HTTP Server to Android.

While I am not a fan of Android mainly due to the fact that its Java is not standard and not based on standard Java ME, it is cool to see a real Java Web Container running in a mobile device.

You know, the S60 platform has a similar solution called MWS (Mobile Web Server) developed by the Nokia Research Center but it is LAMP oriented as far as I know.

Overall the cool thing is to see that it is really possible to host a server inside a mobile device :)
