Android Development

Installing MOTODEV was not the best of experiences. Upon installation I decided to download SDK 1.5, 1.6 and 2.0 since the phones in the lab were 1.5. It turns out that though after the lengthy installation process it was not able to find any other SDK than 1.5 installed, and trying to automatically install them through the IDE did not help since it would come back to me and say that I had all possible SDKs already downloaded. Fortunately I decided to download them manually and everything has been working out pretty well.

I've heard a few horror stories about MOTODEV but I have not been experiencing them, it hasn't crashed once on me and the emulator is running fine (on a separate window). In other words, other than a crappy installation experience it's been a smooth experience.
