Well, it's just an emulator. And of course, it wont have the market on it. And since this is an emulator, you will obviously not be able to do all the stuff that you can do with a device, like taking a picture, playing with the GPS, using the accelerometer, etc.
If you need to decide whether to switch to an Android device or not, checking out a real phone is of course a better idea, rather than playing with the emulator. :) On Sat, Nov 6, 2010 at 10:35 AM, Scott L <scottyl...@gmail.com> wrote: > Does anyone know why this is disabled in the emulator?
