[android-developers] Re: Text-To-Speech
Heya,Ya i had already seen that long back.. thanks.. I myself had been hunting (and perhaps waiting) for a robust TTS app for Android, i hope it comes out soon, coz i believe google employees are also working on it and we can expect it from them soon..

Hi blindfold,have you implemented your TTS in the emulator, i am in a middle of a project, and i am in urgent need of a TTS system in Android ( Emulator will also do, as of now ). The project by Alvaro need a server, can you please suggest me a place where i can get a native-like TTS app code..

[android-developers] What's the Cost ??
Hi,
Can anyone please tell me how much does the G1 cost, if i want to buy
it for some other carrier ?? On the site, it says, $399 - $220 = $179
{ as an instant discount, or the subsidization }.
Can i buy the phone for $399 and use it with AT&T ?
Also, what is the cost of breaking the 2 year contract ??

[android-developers] Re: Android on iPhone
As far as i believe, Apple doesnt allow anything to be done to its hyper-hyped masterpieces. Actually i was just wondering, if somehow i could develop a Dual Boot iPhone ( ofcourse jailbroken/unlocked ) which on startup will ask the user to enter the OS-X or the Android !! I only basics of iPhone programming and i am developing some apps for android too, so why not have both of them at same place ;-) Moreover, I am a final year student doing my undergrad in C.S. I have chosen my final year project to develop an app. on Android. I am really looking forward for the OS which google will release lately, coz the functionalities that i require are still not open in SDK 1.0.

[android-developers] Re: Android on iPhone
I hope so..But if its not, will it not be a gud idea to develop a thin client which will enable iPhone users to actually run the Android on it. I mean the first and foremost thing is, iPhone does not support Java and Android is running on Java Technology, so an interface ( bi-lingual interpreter sort of thing ) will be required to think of it.

A recent post on engadget (http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/09/25/ apple-outs-iphone-firmware-2-2-beta-1/) stated that the new firmware 2.2 (which is now open for developers) can emulate Android on the iPhone.

With 0.9 SDK released, it shows the speech libraries but these are not enabled. I seriously request the Google`s Android Team to confirm, when will the functionality be enabled as, if not the case in some near future, my FYP will be dumped !!
