Except you can interact with the desktop and widgets and run apps using your finger. You fire up the app, and then you connect to Myriad's servers, which literally streams an Android desktop to the tablet via an H.264 video feed. Here's how Alien Dalvik works on the iPad. Myriad wants to help everyone from cable companies to car makers to get Android apps up and running on their wares without needing the OS. It was a cool demo for sure, but there is a bigger point to all this. We're talking full-screen apps, as well as widgets, all streaming from the cloud. At CTIA in San Diego, the company showed us its ambitious Alien Dalvik 2.0 platform running on an iPad.
But it doesn't get more non-Android than this. Myriad demonstrated that it could get Android apps to run on non-Android devices at last year's Mobile World Congress.
