Hi Thomas,
I feel the same related to be dependent on third servers.
I will take a look on this websockets project, too.
thanks.

Guess its just my own bias - I love what google has done with Android
but tend to think applications should try to stay independent from any
specific third party servers (including googles). Google may one day
decide to charge for C2DM, "sunset it" or it might simply go down. For
that matter, the user might be using Android but not signed in to
Google at all.
As you say websockets is an option. Maybe use

Wave is way more than what Cristiano needs. If he just needs to be able
to send info from a server to clients, the best way is to use some sort
of Web Socket or in the case of Android, the Android Cloud to Device
Messaging Framework (C2DM).

Without a c/s protocol yet making alternative clients is very hard -
my own Android project would love to connect to a wave server but at
the moment (imho) its just far too much work.
When the client and server is separated in the codebase the picture
for client developers should be more clear.
If your just pushing info too clients though (ie, purely one way),
using wave is probably overkill anyway. Maybe a Jabber/XMPP connection
using aSmack would work for you?

Hi,
I have a challenge in hands that is implement an application in Android
platform that communicates with a server that is running in a Equinox
server. I would like to be able to push information to the android clients.
Would Wave be an option for this kind of app ?
Anyone are using wave in a android and could point any resource
explaining that?
thanks for any word. regards,
Cristiano
