Can you send me the link to this?  I was looking for the developer phones 
the other day, but I couldn't find it.

 Anyone know if the Sandwiches are usually hdpi or mdpi?  And, is there a 
 way to get one without entering into a 2 year contract?

There is no fixed density for ICS devices. While most phones I've
encountered are mdpi and hdpi, nothing stops people from porting ICS to
some ldpi devices. Why don't you just design your app to work with all of
them?

Also, you can get an unlocked phone if you don't want a contract.

Thanks

There is no correlation between density and version. I have -mdpi,
-hdpi, and -xhdpi ICS devices within 10 feet of me right now.

 And, is there a way
 to get one without entering into a 2 year contract?

Buy a tablet (e.g., Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, 250 USD). Or, buy an
unlocked phone and just use it on WiFi.
