Obenkyo for Android

Just installed it on my phone and it looks like a nice little tool for learning and drilling kanji, kana and vocabulary.  I had browsed the Android store for Japanese-learning stuff but had overlooked this for some reason; was finally directed to it by a comment on this thread on Charles Stross's blog.  Chances are of course that it'll turn out to be just another very useful thing that I don't actually use.  We shall see.

One thing my Android phone is useful for is listening to interesting radio while out and about; I frequently listen to Ban Ban Radio (Kakogawa) or FM West Tokyo when I'm going somewhere.  I rarely understand much but can at least make out syllables and particles, which is a start.
