Android SDK

Days after Android was announced, the operating system that Google would use to make the jump to the mobile sector, its developers' toolkit was made available.

Android SDK includes the necessary utilities to help Android developers with the first few steps: different APIs developed by Google both for controlling the device's functions and for integrating services, a complete emulator for testing applications, and all the necessary reading material to help you with the first steps in programming for Android.

Android, based on Linux, uses a virtual device to run the apps, and offers support for 3G, WiFi, GPS, touch screens, and any other common-place component on high-end mobile phones today.
