The emulator didn't actually ask for permission for grabbing contact list or for making phone call. Hmmm...

Otherwise good, once I skimmed the tutorial and knew what the f*** he was talking about :)

Why do we need another JVM (Dalvik)?? Its not very clear what Java ME subset google has adopted for its API. It just make things confusing for developers out there... bad start for android.
