Hey guys... 

This code works... although I'm not that keen on it, since it is definitely 
not part of the jars available. But it works:

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        TextView arch = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.arch);
        TextView name = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.name);
        TextView version = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.version);
        TextView roversion = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.roversion);
        TextView rofingerprint = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.rofingerprint);
        arch.setText("os.arch: " + System.getProperty("os.arch"));
        name.setText("os.name: " + System.getProperty("os.name"));
        version.setText("os.version: " + System.getProperty("os.version"));
        roversion.setText("ro.product.version: " + 
getProp("ro.product.version", "Not found"));
        rofingerprint.setText("ro.build.fingerprint: " + 
getProp("ro.build.fingerprint", "Not found"));

    }

    private String getProp(String prop, String defaultVal)
    {
        String line = defaultVal;
        try {
            Process ifc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("getprop " + prop);
            BufferedReader bis = new BufferedReader(new 
InputStreamReader(ifc.getInputStream()));
            line = bis.readLine();
            ifc.destroy();
        } catch (java.io.IOException e) {
        }

        return line;
    }

This returns:

TextView arch = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.arch);
TextView name = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.name);
TextView version = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.version);
TextView roversion = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.roversion);
TextView rofingerprint = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.rofingerprint);
arch.setText("os.arch: " + System.getProperty("os.arch"));
name.setText("os.name: " + System.getProperty("os.name"));
version.setText("os.version: " + System.getProperty("os.version"));
roversion.setText("ro.product.version: " + 
System.getProperty("ro.product.version"));
rofingerprint.setText("ro.build.fingerprint: " + 
System.getProperty("ro.build.fingerprint"));

Which gave me this output on my HTC Legend:
os.arch : armv6l
os.name: Linux
os.version: 2.6.32.17-g30929af
ro.product.version: 3.15.405.3
ro.build.fingerprint:
