I'd love to know how to actually get the SDK user interface to show me exactly what's on the screen of my MyTouch. Or better yet, grab JPG images of whatever's on the phone display. Is this even do-able? Thanks in advance! --Bill I actually have a real-live Android TMO MyTouch.

Or, rather, it's the most limited OS that can run their browser, plus their browser. That means that this OS supports nothing but file/disk I/O and their browser. There's nothing this OS can do that you can't do on Windows/Mac/Linux with the Chrome browser.Microsoft need not be worried. No matter how much Google wants to call this an OS, it’s a browser.
