Everyone can recognize that it's not completely fair to put androids against PCs. It's not fair to put iDevices up against Androids either, since they can use external keyboards. It seems like this issue will probably resolved based on population:
- Either android users or iDevice users will be unhappy.
- There are more iDevices users than Android.
- Android users get the short stick because there's less of them.
As far as Android emulators go, the very first and only one I've tried before called "Bluestacks" works quite well, so yes, Android emulators do work and would probably be a concern if dumped with iDevices.
