[quote=meadandale]Don’t get me wrong, I’m always learning a few new things here and there (I read alot) but going full bore into doing phone development on a new platform requires an investment in equipment (you need at least one phone to develop to) and quite a bit of time.[/quote]A real handset, er phone, is nice at some point, but the majority of your work can (and should) be done with an emulator.
[edit]Never mind. Just read your follow-up post on emulators, and yeah, a real phone is key at some point.[/edit]
