Android equivalent to .Net WebClient.uploadFileAsync

I am looking to send a file on android asyncronously. Using c#, I would use WebClient.uploadFileAsync. I found the Java equivelent... AsyncHttpClient. However, I find this cannot be used in Android. I want to be able to get the progress of the upload. More importantly though I dont want to load the whole file in memory; the files are large images and they have trouble uploading all at once.

So my question is simple, is there an Android alternative to .Net's WebClient.uploadFileAsnyc?

In Android 2.3 and higher, use DownloadManager. In Android 2.2 or lower, you would need to roll it more yourself using HttpClient or something.
