Answer 1

This is called a server side 'push' and is commonly referred to as 'pushing'. This is a well known feature of the iPhone, however, it does not currently exist on the Android. Android Cloud 2 Device messaging has not yet been released to the general development community. you may want to check out projects such as MQTT and Deacon.

Answer 2

You might consider using Googles cloud to device messaging for a solution. You'll have to sign up for an account and are only able to use AppEngine servers at the moment.

Your application has to use API level 8 (2.2) in order to be able to receive the cloud's pushes.
