I love my Android phone, and so far, I hate Eclipse (ok, hate is such a strong word. But I DO dislike it Wink ). When one is used to Visual Studio, Eclipse is very very different, and difficult to work with. In addition I have a lot of trouble with the Java namespaces and etc. etc.

 

I have big plans for applikations for Android, not that I expect to make them generally available, but mostly because it is really a toy and a tool for me.

 

So far, mostly due to time constraints, Eclipse and Java have managed to stop me dead in my tracks while I struggle to relearn Java. The syntax as such is not a problem, I usually code in C#, and the syntactical differences are really minor. The main difference is the strict programming model I have to follow, lack of easy documentation (and more importantly, the RIGHT real-world code examples).

 

Oh, and the Java namespaces….

 

So, imagine my exhilaration when I discovered this.

 

Now, I am just waiting anxiously for this to be released ;)
