LOUDLY and PUBLICLY and together that not supporting fonts for Indic

Android 1.5 did not support Indic rendering at all. AFAIK, this problem

Android 2.1 does not support web fonts and Indic fonts are not shipped with
any device I know of.
Android 2.2 does support web fonts and indic rendering, but doesn't ship
with fonts either. Here's a quick test page for anyone who wants to check
from their phone:
