Just two quick points:
1 - Most, if not all, of the complaining about lack of support is directed
squarely at the Android Market. I think you know this.
2 - Google takes a $25 signup fee and 30% cut of every paid app sold through
the Android Market. Considering that, I think it's reasonable to expect some
semblance of support from that particular group.

That said, I wholeheartedly agree with everything else regarding the
platform itself, documentation, samples, and tools.
