Good to know that it's in the queue. I'd love to help on the coding
front, but I'm afraid I don't have the cycles right now - probably the
most common answer, but true nevertheless... That said, I think that
given the public-service nature of Browserscope, it's possible that
Sencha (recently acquired tinySrc) or DeviceAtlas will donate that
piece of functionality to Browserscope. Since they'll be maintaining
it too, that might be a good move, maybe giving them some credit in
the site.
Until that point, I think it'll be worth adding a little footnote to
Android results indicating these tests will vary by device.
I know it's not as good as having the actual support, but at least it
makes people aware that they can't just take those numbers as a sure
thing.
Cheers,
Guypo
