Press HOME, and you're done. Moreover, that's what Android is trying to
teach users to do -- press HOME, and they're done.

Remember: everybody keeps holding iPhone up as perfection for user design,
and applications there do not have normally an "exit" option AFAICT. Users
just press The One And Only Button, and they're done. (Note: my iPod Touch
hasn't been, er, touched since before the OS 3.0 upgrade, so perhaps they
changed their UI approach recently and I missed it).

So, just make sure your app behaves the way you want when the user presses
HOME, and you're done.
