As you saw, MobileOrg is limited to iPhone/iPod Touch.  There has been some stirring to look into an Android version, but nothing has come of that yet.

Other folks are running Emacs either natively on their phones or ssh'ing into a remote host and running Emacs.  I can't speak to the effectiveness of this, having not tried it myself, but the recent speed keys support in Org has apparently made this a bit more usable.

This code is meant to be reused when an app similar to MobileOrg is built on another platform.  The new author can reuse the Emacs integration code (org-mobile-*) that Carsten wrote.  His goal was to write that once, not once per mobile application that springs up.

Hope this helps,
Richard
