Ruby Mobile Ports

Question

Now I'm learning Ruby because I saw it in a very powerful language, but now I want to know which Ruby mobile ports we have and for which devices.

PS: I have HTC S711, HP iPAQ Hx2, Nokia E61, Nokia N95, Palm T | X, Palm Z22, HP Jornada 720 ..., it’s better if I can use it on these platforms, m, to buy other devices, since I am a mobile addict.

Coming soon: MobiRuby is the upcoming (summer 2012) project using mruby . This is iOS specific, but I would not be surprised to see that mruby will be used elsewhere in the coming months.
