Nope, but at least the consumer has a choice if she's unable to wait for an official solution! The trend has clearly been to factor out applications from the OS itself, but there will always be a bootstrapping problem i.e. a phone without contact/messaging/dialer app would not be of much use which is why, presently anyway, the applications known as Contacts, Dialer and Messaging are build into the OS rather than being delegated to the Marked (like is the case with Gmail, Goggles, Maps, StreetView, YouTube etc.). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
