Thank you, Dianne. Yes we can - for better or for worse. I have a graphical screen where I track touch locations through getRawY() in relation to my graphics. However, in the mean-time I already fixed my problem using getLocationOnScreen() for my main view, such that along with its getHeight() I do know both bottom and top absolute coordinates. Perhaps an appalling approach, but it now works fine for both the new Honeycomb UI and Android 2.3-. Problem solved.
