Scratch for android?
Wait! Before reporting this to be closed, remember that this is DIFFERENT from all of the other "Scratch for Xxx" threads.
Anyways, many people have suggested that Scratch be ported to the iTouchy or iFone. And they are told time and time again that that's not allowed by appledapple's rules.
But the Android Market has few rules (and not even an approval process). And Processing, an easy to learn programming language with focus on graphics, is floating around.
Especially with the new android feature.
veggie is making a project that ports as many blocks as possible to Processing. We could borrow some of that and write a drag and drop editor. We could replace SoundCipher with the stock MediaPlayer (processing+android doesn't work with libraries...yet).
Anyone wanna help?

Re: Scratch for android?
if you saw the scratch 2.0 prototype, it was possible to make projects with a tablet that supports flash, such as my android galaxy tab! It worked! ☺

Yeah, I forgot to try it. It was probably very slow though, most flash things are.

Re: Scratch for android?
I make thing
(I really, really need an actual title though!)
Code:
////////////////////////////
//MAYBE A LAYOUT //
////////////////////////////
//Currently this is a mess of rects.
//I'll take a saveframe and just image() that in.
String thisisaverylongvariable = "This is a title. Wowee. Yay."; //Pleasepleaseplease change this.
void setup() {
size(600,800); //change the 800 to another screenheight, should adjust ok
textFont(createFont("Roboto",24,true),24); //roboto because this will be for androids
}
void draw() {
background(0);
fill(255,200); //Random color; real textures will be summoned later.
rect(0,0,width-1,50); //titlebar / nav
rect(0,50,width-1,(height-50)/2.5); //block categories
rect(0,((height-50)/2.5)+50,width-1,500); //scripts
rect(width-40,((height-50)/2.5)+50,40,500); //scripts scrollbar well
rect(0,50,width/2,(height-50)/2.5); //pick-your-blocks area
rect(width/2-40,50,40,(height-50)/2.5); //pick-your-blocks scroll well
fill(0); //select a nice dark black color
textAlign(CENTER,TOP); //align the text
//Now for the fun part, placeholder text!
text(thisisaverylongvariable, width/2,3);
text("Block selection",width/5,height/4);
text("S\nc\nr\no\nl\nl",(width/2)-20,53);
text("Categories!",3*(width/4),height/4);
text("Build scripts!!",width/2,height/2);
text("S\nc\nr\no\nll",width-15,height/2);
//p.s. yes, i intentionally did samewidth
}And for those of you non-coder types:

Well I'll need processing.org. It's pretty easy if you can program the pi.
