Yeah it's pretty obvious that the next iteration of iPhone, will have to match the x2.5 pixels and x2 DPI og current shipping Android devices. > I heard on a podcast that at least in the original Android release > your app is stored on the _phone Flash memory_ and can't be stored on > a memory card which limits its attractiveness for some games.

Android does have that limitation, albeit not sure how much of a practical problem that is given that most people probably have no more than 20-30 applications installed. What large applications tend to do anyway, is allocate bulk data on the SD (GPS map data etc.). I can only speculate that Google chose to do it this way in order to avoid people deleting installed files and/or to guarantee a certain speed of the flash. This limitation is slated to be removed in the nearby future btw. > Yes because the N900 is so new (out last September?) that it hasn't > sold enough devices to be attractive for most developers.

Agreed, there's such a thing as too many choices - especially when coming from the same source. /Casper -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
