T-Mobile shows off Android Emulator for those who don t want the phone
Clearly, we're not going to see the G1 in India any time soon. So if you are as curious to see what all the fuss is about, as we are, we got T-Mobile's Android Emulator comes in handy. It lets you potter around with the new operating system, not to mention take a good 360-degree look at the phone.
Some observations, after playing around with the OS/phone:
-- Why do we need that big clock on the desktop?
-- Applications don't seem to have a "Back" or "Close" button to touch. You need to use the button on the phone. Yes, you have to do that for the iPhone too, but would a simple close button have hurt anyone?
-- There doesn't seem to be a Portrait mode to operate the OS, which means you'll be turning it on its side every time you use it. That may work for you, but doesn't for us.
-- It doesn't look half bad, either.
Of course, we'll reserve judgment till we've poked at the real thing ourselves, but this seems to be a good way to look at what's to come.
You can play around with the emulator here.
