That's annoying. But Marked is a proprietary part of the Google applications (along with Maps, GMail etc.) and not part of AOSP. You are free to install another marked application. Count yourself lucky you can even use Google's marked, here in Scandinavia, it's still not open for paid apps after 18+ months of being able to buy the phones! As to the "uninstall dialog", I doubt it's very useful - I always just use the bottom item as it's closest to my finger. Are you expecting Google to have no proprietary/closed corners at all? Even Sun did not have that AFAIK. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
