@Xavier Can I asked exactly where you are getting your information? Did someone tell you this?
@Craig The developer phone can go on networks like T-Mobile if a sim card is provided, though it is not nessicary for the phone to work. It can access the internet without any card via usb connection. The real question is, is does it come with the market application on it. Hopefully someone with a developer phone can answer this, as it isn't on googles page concerning the phone; http://code.google.com/android/dev-devices.html The way everything is worded. I would assume that the market is NOT on the device since it's intended to test YOUR applications. It also notes that it is not intented for everyday users as it is not supported by anyway... So I'd (hopefully safely) assume that you could not expect the market to be on there. -Tim Strazzere http://www.strazzere.com/blog/ On Dec 14, 8:19 pm, "Xavier Mathews" <[email protected]> wrote: > Do you have the Dev phone.
