So this is a completely noob question, but anyway... how easy, I wonder, would it be to take the 'interface' to the backend there and export it in such a way that it could be 'imported' into a Monotouch or maybe Phone Gap type system?
I guess what I mean is, would it be easy to take this prebuilt interface on the client code side and build it then into a system that will build for different mobile OS'?
Either way, I'm loving the ideas that are starting to come out of Android Studio.
The backend generated through this feature makes use of Google Cloud Endpoints. Since Android uses Java, those are the client libraries that get generated as part of the process. You can, however, generate client libraries for your backend in a variety of languages. As an example, here is the documentations for JavaScript:

Its pretty much Intellij Community edition customized for Android development. Intellij is AWESOME, hands down better then eclipse. Android Studios being based on Intellij is pretty awesome also, the android integration only makes it better.
I had issues where it constantly crashed on one build, but the next update fixed that. Beyond that one issue it has be great. If your using eclipse it will take a day or two to transition over, but after that you will ask why you ever used eclipse in the first place.
