Hi! Good to hear you´re interestes in Android. To really get the feeling of the software platform, I recomend studying a little bit OO programing first. Then, study the source code of the API demo available within the emulator. You can take a look of it at http://code.google.com/android/samples/ApiDemos/index.html. I suggest you execute each example, analyze what it does in the emulator and then start reading some source code.
