Push file into Android device

Question

Is it possible to programatically push a file into the SD card of an Android device over the network? How can this be done?

Answer 1

There is nothing built into Android to do this, strictly speaking.

You are welcome to use C2DM, at least when it is ready for production use, and write a C2DM app pair (on-device, on-server) to arrange to deliver a file. I think there are other third-party push solutions out there.
