Where does it state in developer documentation that the back button is supposed to end a program? I don't see what it has to do with Android introductory orientation, especially when that is not even the way Google's apps function. Try to use back in Gmail sometime - You'll get a headache cycling through the last twenty emails you read. The best Google could provide for an "introductory orientation" would be to say "If you download an app, we have no idea what the back button will do half of the time. We haven't even figured out what we think it should do yet. Push it inside of an application and find out! Don't you like a surprise?" -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
