Check out LazyDriod.
Control your phone with your pc. Pretty slick... I want more of this type of control.

Checked it out, it's pretty cool, but I would prefer Apple's "Remote", since it limits itself to playing music and videos by either using Wireless connection or 3G.
I use it all the time to wake up, play a certain morning/daytime/evening playlist and get going. (I usually leave the laptop connected to the stereo system far away from my bed, so it's quite useful)

Yes, Android has stuff like this as well, but you are referring to the phone controlling the computer.
This is different in that I can set my phone down and keep my eyes and hands on my pc (pc controlling phone). Answer calls, set speaker, read and return text messages all from my pc. No unlocking phone, no phone keyboard crap, nadda (and do this remotely).

Oh, looks like I mixed up the most important sentence. PC controlling phone, not the other way around. Interesting idea when you know you'll be by the PC for some time. I'll search for something similar on the iPhone, would be effective

looks awesome, thanks for the tip. The only problem is that it require constant connection which drains a batter a lot, so it is useful only when my phone is in dock. But still, pretty cool

sorry is this seems offtopic, but since this discussion is about androids, i might as say it

So anyways, Android is much more open for people who would like to make apps and sell them. And I was wondering if anyone on this forum would like to join me in making apps. I'm not that good so this isn't really for expert programmers. I'm not really thinking of the money right now, so this is more of a weekend thing.

So this is more of a more laid back no restriction group im trying to make that could make a few apps and get a few dollars here and there. I'm thinking of splitting the money equally unless someone is obviosly doing more work then others etc.

So... any takers?

So why don't they let Slovakians like Lopdo sell apps then?
