Marakana's public courses are principally taught by Marko Gargenta. I've dealt with him some, and he seems solid. He has an O'Reilly book coming out on Android sometime soonish. I haven't had any direct dealings with any other firms doing US-based public Android training, and so I have no particular recommendations. If you have additional questions regarding my training, feel free to contact me off-list. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
