A new open source project hopes to take Android and change it so it has a clean-room OpenJDK-based Java VM and will be based on what they refer to as a more standard Linux kernel. Meanwhile, rumor has it that RIM is considering using somebody's Java VM to run Android apps, but it won't be Dalvik.

Android runs code compiled into Dalvik bytecode.
If you compile Android SDK into proper Java bytecode, neither will be able to run each others code.
It’s a sensible idea, but whose to say Oracle wont have further issues down the line with people using their OpenJDK :/
As a Java developer, Oracle (and Sun) really haven’t done the best for the platform.
