Regarding the networking on Android, last year on Google IO there was a session about developing REST clients on Android (http:// www.google.com/events/io/2010/sessions/developing-RESTful-android-apps.html). In the first pattern described there is a Service Helper component that acts as a thin layer above the service that actually do the networking. This Service Helper is a singleton. Is this the safe way to implement this component? In this example, what is the guarantee that the singleton will live long enough to receive a binder callback from the service?
