Okay here's another one for you. I recently bought thumb keyboard pro on my tablet and was considering trying it for my phone, do I have to buy it again or can I just Uninstall it from my tablet and put it on my phone?

I think it will stay with the account so an uninstall - reinstall on other device should be ok. I have had items on one device, go to a new phone & they moved on to it without issue. Dont know if apps check to see if they are currently installed/running on another device (phoning home :confused: )

I have both a android phone & tablet.

I can install paid apps on both without paying twice.

the only thing I cannot do is install certain apps are are dedicated for a particular device

Which I did, I wanted the full sized keyboard for my Xoom. I just thought It would be nice to try on my phone since I always seem to hit the full stop button instead of the space bar when typing certain words on my Evo.
Im going to try rebooting the Evo and clearing the market cache, see if that helps. Thanks all.
