Answer 1

Nope, you'll have to buy a real device.

Answer 2

You can install the image from http://www.android-x86.org/ into a virtual machine (e.g. VMWare), find out it's IP address, connect manually using

adb connect <IP of VM>

And then launch your project from Eclipse by setting a "Manual" deployment target in your Debug/Run configuration. Bluetooth works in this Virtual Machine at least on my Macbook and it's reported to work with a couple of other bluetooth chipsets.

Answer 4

Currently no, check here for updated status: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/devices/emulator.html#limitations

Excerpt: In this release, the limitations of the emulator include:

  • No support for placing or receiving actual phone calls. You can simulate phone calls (placed and received) through the emulator console, however.
  • No support for USB connections
  • No support for camera/video capture (input).
  • No support for device-attached headphones
  • No support for determining connected state
  • No support for determining battery charge level and AC charging state
  • No support for determining SD card insert/eject
  • No support for Bluetooth
