Note that you really need only a single instance of HTTPService. You can set the url, method, etc and build the request object using AS, and can handle the result conditionally using AsyncToken.
Post if you need examples.

One solution would be to centralize all HttpServices in the main application file; they would populate the Model in the same way, but not require the existence of their corresponding Components. I'm sure there are better solutions out there...
