My notes:
  • Each App has its own 'Linux User' so it can't poach security info.
    • All the data locked in for that user.
    • There are ways to share data between apps.
  • APK 
    • instead of EXE
    • can be stored in SD-card
  • testing: need to test with at least 50 devices
    • use ADBridge
  • autogenerated R.java has all References. 
  • OnCreate(Bundle savedInstance)
  • Honeycomb/Android 3 like iPad, multitasking
  • Android marketplace $25 to sell your apps.
