I've been using this e-book: http://code.google.com/p/unlocking-android/
It's a little outdated at this point (mid-2009), but the code examples and walk-throughs are awesome, doesn't waste too much time talking about concepts, dives in with concrete code examples that you can play with, IMO best way to learn. If you haven't done it already, the Notepad example and walk through on http://developer.android.com is a good starting point too.
