Hi,

It depends on which version of Android you're running.  On pre froyo
builds (like my old hero), you'll need to bind your phone to your UMN
account.  If you've got a newer build (like my new evo shift), you
should be able to switch between google accounts.

Hope that helps,

And of course, get a second opinion--my info might be out of date now.

Cheers,

Garrett
