Not to mention Bouvet Island -- an uninhabited volcano in the Antarctic covered by glaciers. If you try to land there, the Norwegian navy will fire on you as it's a "nature preserve".
It's OK though -- most country selectors include BV, since they lazily use ISO3166-1 as a canonical list of countries when in fact it just defines country codes.

I've tried this. It's faster even than developing with a device -- once you get a good test/debug flow going it's awesome. Some big caveats though:
* No Google APIs. So no MapView.
* The various builds are quirky. I couldn't get networking to function in the "Stable" Froyo build. Meanwhile, the Gingerbread build used in the linked post reports the wrong SDK version (it claims Honeycomb but is actually Gingerbread). The deprecated Froyo build I tried didn't support Google Accounts. And so on.
Meanwhile, new builds are currently impossible due to the ongoing kernel.org outage (android-x86 has some hard submodule deps on git.android.kernel.org), so my attempts to go in and tweak the build were thwarted.
Still, very cool stuff. I think the iOS simulator is fantastic and I've been pining for something similar for Android. This doesn't quite meet my needs at the moment, but it would save me multiple hours per week if I could get it set up properly.
