Regarding the Android dev phone (adp1),...Hi Steve,<br /><br />Regarding the Android dev phone (adp1), because I consider it as a development platform, the limitation to Edge network capabilities (instead of the expected 3G ones) is not a big problem. Even if the development environment (Eclipse-based) is very good and if the simulator is excellent (better than the BlackBerry one, IMO), it definitively makes a huge difference when playing or demo-ing apps on the real device!<br /><br />When I'm out of the office, for a demo or my personal use, the Edge bandwidth is just fine. The very few applications I use do not require much bandwidth: GMail, GMaps, MyTracks, and Barcode Scanner. The only exception is Qik, but I don't use it a lot.<br /><br />I'm not sure that I would buy a Rogers phone, even if I'm looking for the availability of the HTC Magic on Android market, because the adp1 is totally unlocked. For example, I'll be able to update its OS to the coming Donut release as soon as it's out (with HTC OS images to go back to CupCake if something goes wrong). When travelling in Europe, I can just buy a prepaid service and I'm in business.<br /><br />Man, you're surrounded with 3-years contracts ;) I hope you take benefits of their voice plans! I've a 15$/month/no contract with Fido plus the 1Gb/30$/month and that covers my needs. A prepaid voice plan for 10$/month can probably make it too but I want to keep my number ;)<br /><br />A+, DomDom Derrienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15197441189507302313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-168828253523263225.post-90195666898231998802009-07-28T18:06:11.657-04:002009-07-28T18:06:11.657-04:00Thanks for this infomation.

I have time left on my 3 yr fido plan. So I was researching issues, including moving to rogers/dream versus buying dev phone (adp1) and staying on fido. Is it still true that the adp1 can not use 3g for data even though the rogers dream/magic does? Any other big issues I should consider with my buying adp1 on existing fido versus new 3yr (ouch) rogers plan with similair dream?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08814894144717910990noreply@blogger.com
