Android and Iphone (IOS) version...

Hi,
It would be great to see XnView Pocket on Android and Iphone platform which are currently without a doubt the two most popular mobile OS platforms used today.
if XnView Pocket is even half as good as XnView that I love and use on my Windows for image viewing then I would love to use this on my smartphone mobile device too.
I know that Android uses a non-standard java called Dalvik but Android also has support for native code too (C++) with it's NDK .....as for Iphone/Ipad/touch the programmers language is Objective-C
Would require a lot of work, possibly more than just yourself (Pierre) in coding and development.
Still a project to consider for the future. I currently have a HTC Desire smartphone with Android OS froyo 2.2 (hopefully soon get Gingerbread update) an hey aren't enough decent picture viewer apps available. I think most of the picture viewer apps just front-ends for native Android gallery photo viewer.
You could even charge a small fee for the app's on each marketplace (to make some profit, support development)
Anways, think about this for the future of XnView Pocket
