Right, right. I don't think that this is extremely Android specific, but I think that Android apps are much more likely to do restful communication with a backend than standard apps. Maybe this hasn't been your experience, but it's been mine. (And that could just be because of the types of apps I write.) Thanks for your input, though, I do suspect that major apps all roll their own. kris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
