Oops, didn't see this:
http://www.nabble.com/Jython-on-Android-to13796197.html.. so apparently the topic has been discussed already, sorry.
BTW: Does no response to the above post imply there are difficulties in doing a Jython->Android port? Or simply that there is no interest?

Well, a lot of buzz has started up over the GPhone, and the Android SDK:

Note that the JVM is not actually a Java byte code VM but the Dalvik virtual machine, Google's VM which may eventually work for languages other than Java.
BTW: A Jython port may actually be worth money! There's a "challenge" going on shortly that could be a good incentive for such a port:
