A little more -- all Android devices with market will have ADB support and
full application development and debugger support as the original G1.  That
is, you can use Eclipse to directly develop, install, run, and debug an
application on such a device, just like with the emulator, as well as other
adb tools such as logcat.

The main limitation is that you probably don't have root, so will be unable
to do things like pull your app's private data off the device.

Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to
provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.  All such
questions should be posted on public forums, where I and others can see and
answer them.
