[Kc] Perl for Android

All right! The Android Scripting Environment (ASE) now supports Perl!  
Download an .apk of ASE here: http://code.google.com/p/android-scripting/downloads/list
I might write an app for downloading and installing CPAN modules as  
soon as I buy another microSD, my old one got lost :(
Also, ASE has support as a Locale plugin (the closest thing to a  
crontab system on Android) to run scripts after an event occurs (a  
contact calls, it is a certain time, or you are in a certain area via  
GPS)
Anyway, it seems cool, no idea how much support or how buggy it is.  
Hopefully at least LWP::Simple will work
