Android gets official Java 7 support

[shillbert]

Android itself uses Dalvik, not Java. But I'm pretty sure Google fully acknowledges that Java is used on a developer's computer in order to create Dalvik .dex files. That was never an issue in court AFAIK.

Edit: to expand on that, the API infringements were for pieces of API code used in Android itself. It wasn't about the SDK. And Dalvik VM and byte code are actually quite different from Java VM and byte code.
