Hello Rahil,

Google has considered Java as a preferred platform to work with their 
Android SDK.
You can investigate more on this subject asking the same question with 
Jruby.

I think Jruby should work, since its well supported on Java Platform.

I also think IronRuby should also have an answer, so support this SDK

No. iPhone is a closed platform, and Apple forbids interpreted codes.
(Not Microsoft's fault.)

Well, I've seen pictures of Mono running on Jailbroken iPhones :)
