Thanks for the tip, Yusuf!
The examples are nice! But as I said - they aren't at the right place
when one searches the reference.
I have not found these examples until you sent me the link. And again,
if one finds a specific method in the reference he is left alone with
the API reference, and he has to find examples in the Internet on his
own.
Anyway - I hope that the documentation will improve as the SDK does. I
also think there is a way to integrate Android developers, e.g. by
using a Wiki-like system.

Hi there!
I have been using the Android documentation for a few days now, and it
is quite good and easy to read.
Apart from that I noticed that I missed something, and now I found out
what it is:
Examples and comments.
If you look at the PHP documentation
(e.g.http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.substr.php
for the PHP substr() function) you will see many syntax-highlighted
examples and comments by users.
Of course there are examples in the Android documentation, especially
in the Dev Guide category - they just are not at the right place if
one searches the reference for a specific method or functionality.
What do you think about this?
@Google Team: I believe this means more work, but I also believe that
it would improve the reference by all means. Maybe there is a
compromise: The offline reference just contains the examples and
hyperlinks guide to the online documentation for those who are looking
for user comments.
