[android-developers] Re: Multi-threaded http requests cause exception

Petroleam is right about AsyncTask using a thread-pool of only one
thread on 1.5. Higher versions of Android use a pool of more than one
thread.

You can do something similar with ExecutorService and FutureTask
classes (java.util.concurrent; i believe that AsyncTask is based upon
these classes) and tell the ExecutorService to use Thread-pools of any
size.
