As a currently unemployed developer I take this advice everyday but it really hasn't generated any results (and it really shouldn't be at my current experience level). I've heard countless times from other developers that the

So abiding by that same logic, would you not agree that developing for Android has been a poor career decision up until say, 12 months ago?

It's such a joy being able to walk everywhere in the city. Besides what time you or money you might save, it's great for your health too, especially if you normally take public transit.

I am in agreement with others to be wary and consider looking for a new job. I was in a similar, but worse position that ended up with a lot of my work not getting paid for.
