I was referring to the fact that the 2.1 SDK is still not available and, in general, Google's trend of zero communication with developers. How long does it take to post a "Coming soon, we're sorry." message to the developer blog? Am I really supposed to be forced to look through blog coverage of press releases and leaks to get pertinent details of Android development and SDK release dates? If 2.1 really so similar to 2.0.1, what's the hold up? Kevin - Having been an Android developer for almost a year now, it's getting harder and harder to stay on top of Android development, and truthfully, Google has done little to help.
