I am happy to see that even google employees can be nervous at presentations. Now I feel not so bad about my own presentations anymore :)

You can find Service Pattern implementation (solution A) by searching for RESTDroid on Github ;)

Is he about to throw up?

Wonder if it's the same PhDs which implemented awesome OO making you extend MapActivity when the screen contains a map, or FragmentActivity when it has fragments...

So much waffling. sigh. 

[Joshua Jamison]

You have to implement the AbstractThreadedSyncAdapter abstract class.

would love to see source code for a sample app

44:11 What's a SyncAdapter? I don't see any class by that name, nor SyncManager. I see SyncAdapterType, but it's pretty light on documentation.
