Thanks again. So if I don't need to use it as a phone and my application does not use any phone features, I should be able do do without connecting it to a phone network?
How compatible are these phones. If I get a, say, Nexus One, and get my app working on that, can I expect it to work on a Verizon Droid or Droid Incredible, or do I need to test it on those devices as well?
