I would recommend NetBeans 6.9. It comes bundled with Java2Me. You add the Android plug-in which will help you edit code, but also provides an emulator. There are youtube tuts and books. Take your pick. Be aware that coding for handhelds is a compromise based upon techniques with limitations.

Maybe you know the xml files that make graphics called .svg? This is a wonderful way to make a gui that works like a liquid painting. The conundrum is currently a commercial product called tinysvg does the best job and requires a license. You can, but, write your own svg interpretors. Small ole Microsoft has their own thought that is incompatiable with the w3.org’s svg standard.

So, there are 1,000 techniques to make Android stuff. You will pick your poison.
