This really not an issue for my app. It needs the data to be effective. So you download it in the apk file or the app downloads it later, same effect on the data plan. My current objection is that I have to store the data on the phone twice - once in the assets folder and then again in the SQLite database. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
