As well as being an outstanding developer platform, it's a really nice everyday phone;
IIRC, previous developer phones were not allowed to download/run paid Market applications, to reduce piracy. Is that also the case for this phone? If so, that might make it less desirable as an everyday phone.
- ben1040 16y agoI believe the block was actually only on Market apps that had the copy-protect flag enabled. Google has (as of last week with the release of the licensing service) changed their stance on the copy protection flag, advising developers to use the new licensing service instead and not set the copy protect flag at all.
- jfno67 16y agoThis limitation has been gone for at least 6 months, even on the previous phone. At least for HTC ION, (it's the only phone I had with this limitation).
