Wife and I getting our EVOs today, can we share one marketplace account?

Not knocking what you're wanting to do, but why? I'm not sure what benefit there would be to having a single account, that's all.

My wife and I used the same iTunes acct. With the EVO, I am not sure it is possible. You can enter the same credit card #, but the email would probably need to be different...Even if it isn't, would you want her in your email?

Option 1:
Yes use Google nav... It rocks! But I think in 2.1 you can set up more than one gmail account on your phone. So you two could make one account for your apps and then set up your gmails per phone.

Option 2:
If you can only have one gmail set up on your phone in 2.1 then what you can do until 2.2 comes out is to set up the gmail as the same account that you setup for apps and then use Googles active sync for your separate gmail emails.

You can have one account on more than one device and dl your apps on both. Thats what I did when I had my Hero and my Evo 2 weeks before launch.

If you need clarification let me know in the thread or PM me.

We share our appstore account across our two iphones. Can this be done with the android market place? [FONT=&quot][/FONT]

Yes it can be done. As long as your primary gmail account is the same on both phones. I have a EVO, Droid and a G1 I use for Wi-Fi calls and they all share the same apps that I have purchased from the market. Don't know if you want your wife having access to your email though...;)
