Learn basic Android programming using Eclipse and Java. 

Eclipse is the best way to develop native Android apps. Learn the basic steps to perform tasks like playing sounds, video, or saving images. If you're already an expert, this book is probably not for you. But if you're a beginner with Android and Eclipse then this book will help you make apps. Broken down into 19 chapters with each chapter covering a specific topic:

* Build an Android Hello World application
* Learn about dialog boxes
* Spinner control
* Playing video inside apps
* Playing sounds
* Building a web browser
* Creating tabbed applications
* Using ListView
* Transitioning between views
* Sending emails from apps

And more. This book is suitable for readers with moderate programming backgrounds or for experts in Java who've never developed Android apps before. Great for first time beginners looking to develop Android apps with native tools. Knowledge of Java is helpful but not necessary.
