Hi.

I provide additional information on how to handle and upload files to
a scdard emulator.  Hope you find it useful!!!

1. create the sdcard:
   1. create a directory EX: c:\temp
   2. open a command prompt and gothe the directory.
   3. make the sdcard via the command:
        mksdcard <size> sdcard.img

2. Add mp3 files to the card:
   1. start the android emulator with sdcard support:
      - under the run menu click "open run dialog"
      - make sure to highlight the correct project
      - click the tab marked "Target"
      - under the additional emulator commands enter: -sdcard c:/
temp/
sdcard.img

   2. open up a command prompt in windows:
      - in one window enter "adb shell"
      - you now can browse the emulator file system via commands like
ls and cd
      - type ls and confirm you have a directory named sdcard.
      - type "cd sdcard" to change to that  directory.

   3. open up another command prompt
      - add mp3 files to the sdcard via adb push: Here's an example:

adb push "Michael Tarbox and Howard Ferguson - Beautiful City 2-4-03
Plough & Stars.mp3"
 /sdcard/"Michael Tarbox and Howard Ferguson - Beautiful City 2-4-03
Plough & Stars.mp3"
218 KB/s (0 bytes in 2889576.012s)

    4. confirm addition of mp3 file:
      - enter ls under the adb shell:
# ls
ls
android
Amy Winehouse - Back to Black.mp3
Sheryl Crowe - The First Cut Is The Deepest.mp3
