I want an Android app that makes, edits, and manages lists, and haven't been able to find what I'm looking for. Say I want to write my own program. Say also that I don't have any programming experience, and no programming knowledge beyond the basic concepts. What sort of steps would I have to take and what sort of timeline would I be looking at before I produce something useable?

OK, so I have a lovely screen on my HTC Desire which caters to all my media needs (Spotify, Radio Paradise, iPlayer). What I would like is a large version of it, on the kitchen wall, which permanantly hooks up to my bluetooth speakers. So when cooking, I would merely touch the wall to get music, video, stream bbc things etc. Cool idea no?
So can anyone recommend a cheap touchscreen PC for that purpose (preferably at least a 7" screen), and how hard is it to install android on one?

Time to pick a cell provider. The big thing is that I use my Android phone for everything. I don't want a computer so the 3G needs to be good.
It's between Verizon and Sprint because I know AT&T gets virtually no service.
So I humbly ask of you, which one isn't lying on their coverage map?

I just realized, after calling ATT's tech line, that I cannot send pictures using my 3-yr old bottom of the barrel (then/now) Samsung flip mobile because of some damage done to it after taking a pretty nasty spill on my bike while the phone was pocketed. So, I'd like to regain this functionality and possibly upgrade. My budget is $500, for simplicity's sake. One of my options will hopefully give me....

Help me get an unofficial Android 2.1 ROM on to my HTC Hero.
As an increasing number of Android apps now require version 2.1, and because HTC have dragged their heels so much about making an official update for the Hero available, I'm considering installing an unofficial ROM on my phone. Trouble is, I'm not entirely sure how to go about it.
