How to deploy a mono for android app to my cellphone

Question

I built my first mono app in vs 2010 but when I tried to deploy it to my phone I figured out that it is only deployable to the simulator, not the device itself. I am using the trial version of monodroid. But I saw an apk file produced in the debug folder of project that is also not installable by copying into sd card and running.
So what is the usage of trial version if it is not deployable on devices or am I making a mistake somewhere?

The trial version does not allow you to deploy apps - it only allows you to develop for the emulator. This is clearly stated on their web site.
If you want to deploy, you have to pay them the $399 they are currently asking, or find a non-C# solution instead.

(This is what put me off using it for my tablet)
