Come on guys. File size DOES NOT matter. You can distribute only the exe through the Market which will download (during the first run) rest of application data to SD card. There are already games which are distributed this way. This is also preferred sometimes, because you can distribute patches in more optimized way (instead of pushing 1.4GB to the market you tell your ~10MB exe to download only those parts of application which are required).

Not true, 32 bit processors can access 4GB of memory (2^32), HOWEVER since video card, basically any IO card etc. has it's own memory space then the amount of RAM processor can address is decreased (total addressing space is 4GB). But it can be easily fixed by enabling PAE, then 32 bit processor can access 64GB of memory (with very slight 2-3% speed overhead).

Should be, but usually they're in form of binary blob. Which is a problem when for example a new version of firmware requires new kernel which those binary blobs do not support. See what happens with HTC Android phones, HTC Magic, Hero and G1 don't support newest Android 2.1 fully because there are no 3D and camera driver source code available...
