Google has released a virtual machine. My main experience with virtual machines is with Java - "write once, run slowly") . Though maybe with the hardware (like my PowerBook, which seems to handle virtual Windows just fine) catching up, the age of virtual machines may finally arrive. Anyhow, the Google machine "basically runs a cell phone emulator from the Eclipse IDE and compiles Java code to the Dalvik virtual machine."
