Testing Android Applications on the HTC Legend

After hours trying to get the right drivers for my HTC Legend, I've finally managed to do the following -

1. Able to test applications developed using Eclipse straight on my HTC Legend without having to install them via the market or otherwise
2. Able to take screenshots of my HTC Legend through connecting to my laptop

It's been important for me to get this all set up correctly because I'm wanting to develop some applications for my personal research project.

I encountered problems installing things because I'm using a HTC Legend smartphone. For others who might want to do the same, here are the site that I've used to get it all set up -
