I'd recommend Mirah (https://github.com/mirah/mirah) and Pindah (https://github.com/mirah/pindah) as an almost Ruby over Ruboto for Android due to slow startup times from the poor performance of Reflection on Dalvik.
Search for 'Ruboto IRB' in Android marketplace. Perhaps every Rubyist owning an Android should at least have an IRB in his pocket :).
This encourages me to write an app for Android.

I keep waiting in vain for a real Python option on Android, but Jython-on-Android was abandoned in favor of that lobotomized "android scripting environment" mess.
I'm not Ruby's biggest fan, but I'll take it over Java any day.
