[android-developers] Re: Galaxy Tab and Market filtering

Yup. They made it for a pretty good reason though. They tried using
mdpi drawables, but so many apps simply looked better with hdpi
drawables.

Unfortunately, many developers still think that mdpi means 320x480.
And many developers ignore tablets because they are expensive and the
emulator is too slow.

That's off-topic though. The topic of this thread is to find out how
the Device Availability dialog in the Developer Console (and Android
Market in general) deals with the compatible-screens tag.
