It is true, but misleading that "the emulator may work for most cases". Unless you are doing a very simple app, you should not even think of uploading it to the market until you have tested it on a real phone, preferably unrooted, since that is what most users will use. It is imperative if you are using OpenGL, the video, camera or sensors.
This is because there really are different bugs in each of these areas not only on different phones, but even different software releases for each phone. This is the infamous "fragmentation" Google loves to pretend does not exist. But it is real, and that keeps companies like DeviceAnywhere in business, since they can test your software on a staggering variety of phones.
