My apologies if I seemed a little curt in my original response. There are quite a few people who post questions without doing any work for themselves to find an answer... and I had already answered two other people today who fit into this category. It took me 2 minutes to look on the SDK docs to find the answer for them.
It gets a little old and it seemed that your question fit into that category as well. I really don't know the answer to the question. Perhaps someone else can answer this, or, when you get your phone, you could post your findings.
