Java, apps and the 21st century

i know apple will never tolerate Java and thus cannot access it on my ipad.
i see on android (google nexus is my next little "take to the loo" toy as the ipad is a two hander...read what you want into that!) cannot access either... but am thinking there must be a way round this whereas it is a no go with apple products.
so question - can android tablets use java and also does gamecolony have otherwise, if this fails, app available for ALL its games and so one can enter tournaments and such?

Gamecolony already offers its first apps for mobile devices.
For Android phones and tablets, we have 2 very popular apps that fully support tournaments and ladder: Backgammon GC and Dominoes GC. Dominoes GC app is even offerred in 2 languages: English and Spanish. Currently Gin and Cribbage apps for Android are in development.
For Apple, we currently offer 2 comprehensive iPad apps: Gin Rummy GC and Cribbage Live. There is also a non-full-featured Backgammon Live for iPad. iPhone apps are under development
We are committed to developing and supporting all of our popular games on Android and iOS.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
