Yes, that is what I was thinking as well (I was asking if there was an
automatic way to install a second APK, I did realize that the user
could manually install one). If I put up a message when the app is
first installed telling them that they can install the Widget app, and
providing a link to the Market, do you think that I will get a lot of
flack. Note that use of the Widget is an optional feature, and there
may be many who simply will not use it at all. Considering that many
phones don't have a lot of internal storage, I really don't want to
force the user to install the whole app on the phone just to get a
Widget that he may not really want anyway.
