I gave that a shot a while back. It seemed to perform a bit better than the Android Emulators that some with the SDK, but it was slow none the less. I still think that you're best off trying to find an actual Android device. But this is for sure a decent alternative! Mark

How does it compare to Genymotion?

My simulator is still slow, but I will say it's been a LOT faster since I updated my mac memory to 16GB. At the time, it cost about 100 bucks. Not something for everyone, but it made a difference. Cheers! -- Smug
