I've got an HTC Magic (also known by the execrable name myTouch 3G) running Android 1.6 from T-Mobile. I also have a MacBookPro running OS 10.4.11. Does a tethering program exist that will let me use my phone to supply an internet connection for my computer? It seems that I can't use PdaNet (my computer would need to be a PC, or I would need a phone running Android 2.0). Do any other good programs exist that fit my specifications?

I am looking for (recent) experiences with Android options for VoIP over WiFi to deal with places where I have a WiFi signal, but no 3G/voice signal. I'm looking for solutions for two situations: (1) In one of my labs at work, there is plentiful WiFi coverage, but no cell/data signal. I'd like to be able to make outgoing calls, and I'd also prefer if I could receive incoming calls. (2) For international travel, it would be nice to have a way of making calls at least where WiFi is available. [more inside]

I want an HTC Magic, badly. T-Mobile is sitting on it for probably the rest of the summer in order to prevent cannibalizing G1 sales.

My phone contract is going to expire this June and I am looking to get a new phone/contract. I am leaning toward getting an iPhone but I think that phones with Android might have more potential to be better in the future. Right now my hesitation about Android phones is that the only one out is the Tmobile G1, which is inferior to the iPhone. Does anyone know if there will be more Android options come June/July? What do you think I should get this summer, iPhone or Android based phone?

I recently migrated from a Windows powered smart phone to HTC G1 running Android. I was able to migrate all my contacts and schedules from Outlook to Google online apps. The only problem is migrating my passwords and accounts database which was running eWallet. eWallet is offered for iPhone but not for Android. The application offers export to a text file but I have no idea what other password management software would support import. Has anyone had to deal with the same problem?

While tethering is officially unsupported on the new Android phone, there is no Apple-style remote-app-killing service. Is there anybody out there familiar with the Android SDK that could tell me if tethering this phone to a laptop to share internet is impossible? Is it something physically unsupported in the SDK, or artificially blocked out by T-Mobile? Or will there be an app out like, 10 minutes after the phone is released?
