A comment on Sun CEO explicitly endorsed Java's use in Android. Parent comment
It's fairly well defined by JSRs 270 or 216, and Android isn't even close. For example, the GUI libraries are quite different.
If you include the Java bytecode-to-Dalvik compiler as part of the "system" it could be considered compatible.
I don't think the compiler runs on the phone, so it doesn't count.
