From the description it sounds as if gdb was running off-target (same as it would for debugging Palm), except perhaps it connected via gdbremote-over-TCP instead of a 68k debug stub via RS232 or similar. And in this case, the phone's TCP stack is running over the phone's radio.

From the sound of it, this device likely could have matched these claims.
- jcun4128 5y agoThe full couple of paragraphs is kind of lengthy to paste here but I think the main "coolness" is that while debugging, the phone rang. Not sure if in the other cases people are mentioning, the phone couldn't run. Also the development turn around time was much faster for Android's case apparently. > ...whereas the engineers that other companies, they had the big breadboard prototypes, the big full sized prototyping board, and the phone would run on that, and it was not connected to a radio so they couldn’t actually use it as a phone.
