Hello Craig,

i managed to run the emulator by manually picking the deployed JAD in 
the Motorola Launchpad. This works fine. Wait, i have an idea...

Ha! And now i found out, what the problem with running the emulator out 
of eclipse by using the JAD-File is, that motorola's toolkit cannot 
handle pathnames with "file:"-prefixes. I manually removed the file: 
prefix, ignoring the warnings from eclipseme. That WORKS. Maybe i can 
try to create a patch...

So: Motorola's Toolkit only works with the "JAD URL" option, if you do 
NOT enter a file: prefix!

I cannot understand motorola, just as you described. But thats a problem 
that many companies have - the management does not recognize the 
benefits of open-source. They are afraid of giving "top-secret 
knowledge" to the outside world ;-)

Regards,
Markus
