Questions about android
So I was thinking of switching to an android phone from my wm phone and I just want to make sure it can do everything I need. So my questions are: I dont have broadband where I live so I download big files on my phone then transfer them to my puter can I do this with an android phone? Will it download any type of file? Can I choose where to save it to? Can I view and extract rar and zip files on the phone? Can I view all files on the storage card even if they are not android files? Can I watch any type of video file? Is there a torrent client app? I think thats pretty much it. Thanks

Yeah, through applications. Also, if you plug it into a PC and use it as a mass storage device, you can rearrange anything anywhere.

Is there a torrent client app?
A friend of mine showed me how to and where from, to download full movies but I don't remember off the top of my head but its out there.
Music - I use mp3 download, mp3 search and tunee music to download music.
There may be more out there.
