SDK documentation:

I would suggest that for now you ignore the <fragment> tag; all it is, is a
convenience for doing certain things.  Learn how to directly use the
Fragment APIs and how those work with activities, and then once you are done
with those basic concepts you can throw in <fragment> layout tags.

(I should probably adjust the Fragment java doc to reflect this approach as
well.)
