Sorry to disappoint, but my finances don't allow me to sponsor an Android device for you, currently. But I spent some time building a convenient emulator package, which you (and everyone else who is interested) may use: Screenshot: http://p173.de/s/1291960996.png It's a VirtualBox [1] Virtual Machine (packaged as OVF, so in theory it could also be used with VMWare or other virtualisation software, but I don't know if it actually works), which contains a full Linux Desktop (Linux Mint 10 [2]) and the Android SDK [3] emulator, which directly starts up when you 'power on' the virtual machine. [1] http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads VirtualBox can be freely downloaded from the above URL, it runs on Linux, Windows, OS X and Solaris. [2] http://www.linuxmint.com/ (based on Debian/Ubuntu) [3] http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/emulator.html Of course you could also just download the Android SDK, configure an AVD (Android Virtual Device) and start it in the emulator - but using my "virtual appliance" is probably faster / easier. Download: http://p173.de/f/AndroidEmulator.zip [1.6 GB] Instructions: 0) Make sure you have ~8 GB of free disk space and ~800 MB of free RAM 1) Unzip AndroidEmulator.zip (and then delete the .zip file) 2) In VirtualBox, Menu [File / Import Appliance...] click the [Choose...] button and select the AndroidEmulator.ovf file 3) After the import you can delete the .ovf and .vmdk file 4) Start up the virtual machine 5) Start the Android Browser and enter the URL of your favourite Roundcube Webmail instance on the Internet 6) Start improving the Roundcube Webmail UI :) Patrick. -- Key ID: 0x86E346D4 http://patrick-nagel.net/key.asc Fingerprint: 7745 E1BE FA8B FBAD 76AB 2BFC C981 E686 86E3 46D4 --- 8< --- detachments --- 8< --- The following attachments have been detached and are available for viewing. http://detached.gigo.com/rc/Wr/DX80AzaO/signature.asc Only click these links if you trust the sender, as well as this message. --- 8< --- detachments --- 8< ---
