Heads up, if you're looking to try Android development on OS X, once you learn the basics drop Eclipse and just use this TextMate bundle: http://www.onebitwonder.com/projects/android

The only good thing about Eclipse (IMO) is the in-line error handling, otherwise it's just overly bloated, slow, and clunky.

That is one of the nice things about Android development. You dont' need to use Eclipse. I've done all my Android development so far with Emacs.
