There should be some new marketing by T- >Mobile and/or Google (we've all seen the iPhone ads)--something along >the lines of Apple's "There is an app for that" campaign.

For instance, I wrote my game for my wife, but she has to play it on my phone because damned if I'm buying another one of these half- finished half-bricks. Grr. You hit all these nails right on the head. My attitude is becoming unhelpfully hostile, so enough posting from me today. Think I'll go see if I had a sale today. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
