Starting out in Android tablet development

I recently bought a Motorola XOOM tablet to develop Android apps on. I'm running into major problems with finding resources to learn from. I know Java. The Android Dev Guide sample codes are almost all dependent on a keyboard or won't run on my XOOM. Are there any suggested places to start learning Android development, other than the Android Dev guide?

You will be creating a new avd config to specify the tablet screen size, memory constraints, SDcard size, etc. I believe that most of that can be achieved by just creating a new avd and changing the parameters in avd manager. Although You may also have to create a tablet skin to go with the AVd you created.

Please visit these links.... They breif you right from setting up the vitrual device configuration in eclipse to development of applications for tablets.

I hope these links will help you in creating an android app for your beautifull tablet.

Check out O'Reilly eBooks on eCarrel (eReader for developers app). The app will run on your XOOM just great. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.ambrosoft.searchlib

I also use the XOOM for development and I love it
