Any chance this could be condensed into a PDF with all appropriate diagrams?

The problem is that the ideas are flowing in so fast I can barely keep up with the web version. Next up is Gingerbread then Honeycomb...

Thanks for sharing this! I just picked up a Droid X last night and desperately need to learn how to use it.

Need to get in my 5th post so I can see these images. Sorry for the redundancy.

hi there,
im wondering if anyone can tell me if its possible to have promo codes with android apps? if not, is there an equivalent to iPhones promo codes so people can test apps for free??
thanks!

Thanks for the links in your signature, I didn't know I could copy and paste...although I can't seem to get it to work for images.

This thread is sooo awesome! I learned so much, and I'm going to subscribe to it so I don't miss a thing.

Couple of newbie questions if anyone would be so kind to answer.
1. I've rooted my Captivate, but still can't seem to download tethering apps. e.g. PdaNet. I get a message saying the app I'm looking for can't be found. Shouldn't I be able to download such apps now that I'm rooted?
2. I read the tutorial for copy/paste. I guess my phone is slightly different b/c I wasn't able to double tap a word to bring up a "copy" menu...rather, I hit the menu button while in the browser for the selection. While this works perfectly for text, I can't seem to figure out how to cut and paste images. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for all your help.

Thanks for taking the time to put this together. Recent BB convert here and loving every bit of the Android phones. This definitely helped.

Looks like great information. I am trying to figure out which Verizon Android phone to get (will be my first Android after a couple Windows Mobile phones). I need to get 5 posts so I can see the images.
