This book is very interesting for those who are starting on mobile development and has experience developing with Adobe Flex / Adobe AIR. Demonstrate key techniques so you do not have to leave your comfort zone (development with Adobe Flex / AIR) and has to learn a new technology to start developing for Android. It is a book that goes straight to the point with practical examples of key concepts and features needed to develop on Android devices. Full Review  >

I am the curious minded and for me, looking to play with the Android SDK has been on my to-do-list for a while. I did review an Android book by O'Reilly a few weeks back, but it was through the use of Java and the Android SDK officially. As a Flex developer by background, I have been eagerly awaiting this book,Developing Android Applications with Flex 4.5 by Rich Tretola, as it gives me the chance to experiment with Flash Builder 4.5 and creating Android applications with the more familiar Flex.

Android and Flex is a powerful combination and Adobe has done a fantastic job with providing support for mobile programming with the latest release of their Flash Builder IDE. Full Review  >
