We live in a strange world..Here is some proof.
According to people at Xamarian the have build a way to port java apps on to C# .So can we expect Google to ditch Java and go for faster C#?Nah at the moment.But at least it can be looked as an alternative to Oracle's Java with all those patent battles..
If you haven't heard of Xamarian they are the good people who developed Mono the open-source .net platform.

In the words of Miguel (Xamarian Bloger)
"Mono for Android is doing great, and we are starting to think again about improving our own product’s performance on Android. What if we could swap out Java with faster C# and get rid of various Dalvik limitations in the process? Could we create an Android phone completely free of Java, and free of the limitations of the Dalvik VM?
We decided it was crazy enough to try. So we started a small skunkworks project with the goal of doing a machine translation of Android from Java to C#. We called this project XobotOS."
