ARM launches free toolkit for Android

Does this Community Edition toolkit include armcc, ARM's excellent (but expensive) optimizing compiler?<p>I don't understand why ARM charges thousands of dollars per seat for their compiler. gcc generates crappy ARM code. Doesn't ARM want all developers to be able to build fast ARM applications? Why doesn't ARM just contribute their compiler expertise to improving gcc rather than developing a complete toolchain?

Not available for OS/X.<p>Wants to force you to wrestle with the 600 pound monster of Eclipse.<p>Not free if you company has ten people or more.

This is not an alternative to the android ndk, right? I haven't had to use the ndk-gdb debugger so far (I just debug the native linux version) so I'm not sure if this project will help me or not.<p>Maybe the system profiler is worthwhile? Anyone know?

I think this is one of the only times that I've seen assembly advertised as being able to be reused on multiple platforms.
