The android system has its way of doing things, and it is frustrating to work with sometimes, but it does allow you to run your own programs.

What additional things would you like to see in Android to give it *nix superpowers :) Cheers, Devendra. _______________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List
