Thank you for the MIME type info, hackbod! This does not seem documented anywhere in android-sdk-windows-1.0_r1/docs (I did a full text search), but I deployed it right away. It is unfortunate though that developers do not have access to a testing facility similar to www.deviceanywhere.com for running their apps on physical Android phones, because having to wait until after phones hit the market is not ideal either, to say the least, and I suspect quite a few developers would like to make good use of the wide interest associated with the first shipping date of the T-Mobile G1.
