Yes, try it out.  We're currently looking at merging the last 
change so Android cross-compilation support ships with the 
official ldc releases.  You have to use the linked betas for now.

Another issue is that there's no touch GUI written in D that I 
know of (DlangUI has been built for Android, but I think it's 
meant for mouse input: 
http://forum.dlang.org/thread/cdekkumjynhqoxvmgjze@forum.dlang.org), though you could go the more traditional route of writing the GUI in Java and the core logic in D, interfacing the two through JNI.

Dan has been looking for someone to take over the iOS port, which 
he hasn't had time for.
