FOR A FAST START: I would recommend official Java Tutorial on SUN website: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/ You don't have to know everything (like RMI, Swing, JDBC) but the following topics give you the best start: # Getting Started — An introduction to Java technology and lessons on installing Java development software and using it to create a simple program. # Learning the Java Language — Lessons describing the essential concepts and features of the Java Programming Language. # Essential Java Classes — Lessons on exceptions, basic input/output, concurrency, regular expressions, and the platform environment. # Collections — Lessons on using and extending the Java Collections Framework. Before starting on the mobile programming world, it is better to gain some basic experience with desktop application programming (JavaSE) because running and debugging is relatively easier, simpler and faster. When you feel comfortable with Java classes, interfaces and basic OOP concepts, then you can jump to Android wagon and enjoy the more technical aspects like UI, Networking, 3D, MAP, etc. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
