Hello Barrie,
Thanks for the question.
As Qt is coming to Android[1], there are chances for Kexi on Android indeed.
It would reuse the efforts of the maemo/meego version[2].

Expect some results by the end of 2011. The project has not started yet.

You may ask if you can do to contribute? Of course.
The first thing is to share use cases with us, e.g. what actions would
you like to take on your android device, what kind of information
would be viewed, etc.
In fact you already started to share the use cases :)
We can share all this on our wikis if you prefer.
