As you may or may not be aware of, if you're using motodev to develop Android on Eclipse you can actually have the emulator window integrated seamlessly with the developing environment and I was wondering if there is any way of replicating this without the need of installing all the extra things that motodev comes with.

Not that I have anything against them, I'm just wondering :)

No, I'm afraid it's not possible to integrate the emulator into Eclipse. The reason for this, is that the emulator included in the Android SDK is actually a separate binary built specifically for your platform.

The DDMS integration into Eclipse does show screenshots of a device, but presently that is only available through a separate window (from the Devices tab). Refreshing only happens manually, and is very slow. (Worse yet, it runs on the UI thread.)
