Thanks for the link. Interesting concept of a Tor-Android Combo.

I am just a beginner with Android (effective as of today). People who
have android phones tell me they are locked and must be jailbroken to
get root access for applications to use kernel level resources such as
iptables. However, I presumed the Android SDK Eclipse plugin could
simulate this, such that an application can be created and tested
using the android emulator phone as if a real phone had root access to
the Linux kernel. Am I mistaken?
