Chris Slinkman replied to Linda Goldstein's discussion apps which require external hardware"The kits aren't for sale through google i think. I think they did a limited run for the devs. However there are a number of places that are selling their design. All the tools and source are open and should be on android website."
Chris Slinkman replied to Linda Goldstein's discussion apps which require external hardware"Thought I'd post more information to this as it just became available at Google IO. Android is now starting support of USB devices though it's Accessory Development Kit. This is perfectly suited for the request…"
Chris Slinkman replied to Linda Goldstein's discussion apps which require external hardware"The accessory api for Android is somewhat non-existant right now. There are various ways around this. The main one is the Square way. Square uses the mic built into the phones to transmit information to the phone.
Currently there are…"
Chris Slinkman replied to Uki Dominque Lucas's discussion Amazon Appstore for Android is open"When I checked this morning AB:Rio was still free."
Uki Dominque Lucas replied to Chris Slinkman's discussion Development Forum?"And help would be appreciated.
I am torn between:
- my architect job in Sears,
- whole bunch of mobile apps I am doing,
- 2 Android classes per week,
- GTUG events
So often I just have no time, nor energy, to post articles, or come up…"
Chris Slinkman replied to Chris Slinkman's discussion Development Forum?"Fair enough. That answered my question.
I'd be more than happy to be a part of the next session. I'll also push any technical thoughts/ideas to the google groups page."
Uki Dominque Lucas replied to Chris Slinkman's discussion Development Forum?"Couple updates:
1) Chris just volunteered to spearhead the next session -- we will talk about details soon
2) I am organizing a "round table" for mobile publishing media: news, magazines, books, blogs. I will post on that soon.
3) I do not…"
Chris Slinkman replied to Chris Slinkman's discussion Development Forum?"Personally it just seems odd that the site claims to be a training and development community but outside of the actual classes that Uki puts on there there is no training or development going on. Thats not to say the classes aren't good. I…"
Chris Slinkman replied to Chris Slinkman's discussion Development Forum?"Yeah but Stack overflow is more of a Q&A site and I've been looking for more of an open discussion. Stack overflow is a great site for information."

Chris Slinkman posted a discussionDevelopment Forum?
Each time I want to start a discussion of Android development I start searching the web for a place to post it. However, when I come to this location all there is are application posts or random news stories and no real location to post development questions or comments. So how about adding a development category?
Chris Slinkman replied to Veronica Ludwig's discussion Anyone have an Android 2.2? Try this out tomorrow..."The application went free. Downloaded it to my phone. It's quite the learning curve but perhaps after using it for a while I'll get used to it. They have a lot of custom features and shortcuts."
Chris Slinkman replied to Uki Dominque Lucas's discussion Why Isn’t Netflix on Android? Not Secure Enough To Suit Hollywood?"Probably correct on the overall interest in the app until the Android Marketshare peeked. At least it's on it's way now.

Chris Slinkman replied to Natalia Cantemir's discussion A perspective of the history of Droid"Basically it comes back that the platforms need each other. Android pushes iPhone and iPhone pushes Android. It's basic competition for users. While I swear by Android I get excited for each new iteration of the iPhone. Innovation is the spice…"
Chris Slinkman posted a discussionMVP Android Perspective
While recently reading some information Google had posted on the MVP design pattern I got curious about how it would look like in real code. The basic idea of this approach is to build one finite piece of testable code and build front ends to it. This allows the business logic to be easily and quickly testable while allowing several types of display. The design pattern attempts to follow the pattern discussed in …See More
