[android-developers] Re: Is it possible to create a app that's connected to a desktop client.

Hi,

Yes it is possible, next question would be how to do it.

Possible methods -

via intermediate webserver with http
via xmpp
via smp text messages
via direct tcp/ip connection between devices (may be difficult through
proxies & firewalls)

etc

Regards
