Yes. After all, HTC and other firms are using it as a core platform in a mobile handset, and other people have gotten it to work as a replacement core platform on some existing devices. In practice, most of the publicly-visible documentation that I have run across is aimed at application development, not getting Android running on such-and-so hardware. So getting Android to run on whatever device you have in mind may take some work. > Is Android a platform same as J2ME (or maybe more advanced) and can't > used for developing complete software, menu tree, screens and features > of a mobile handset (such as message center, phone book, call > recording, audio and video player, sound and video recorder, camera, > GPRS, WAPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and so on) or Android can used as a > complete core platform in mobile handset development? The idea is that Android provides most, if not all, of that for you "out of the box". -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Warescription: All titles, revisions, & ebook formats, just $35/year --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
