That is not a recommended practice.

You may be missing the <uses-screens> element in your manifest, and so
you may be in a compatibility mode, with Android scaling everything
automatically.

That is still not a recommended practice.
A DROID/Milestone is a -normal, -hdpi device. The original system of
using resolution-specific resource sets (e.g., -800x480) may still
technically work, but you will be coding layout files until the end of
time, one for every possible resolution.
I recommend reading the following for the recommended practices for
handling multiple screen sizes:
