Android Development Books Now Available

December 26th, 2008 MobileFreak

Android RobotAttention mobile developers — the Rough Cuts version of the Android Development book from O’Reilly is now available. I was a bit ignorant on exactly what ‘Rough Cuts’ meant, so I checked it out on the O’Reilly site. Here is their official description:

When you buy a book on the Rough Cuts service, you get access to an evolving manuscript. You can read it online, download as a PDF, or print. Once you’ve purchased a Rough Cuts title, you have a chance to shape the final product – you can send suggestions, bug fixes, and comments directly to the author and editors.

You have your choice in the Rough Cuts program of purchasing just online access, just the print book when it releases, or the best of both worlds – online access immediately and the print book later.

A second O’Reilly book covering the Google mobile development platform, titled Hello Android, is supposed to be available any day now.

So if you’ve got a few days off to sit around and eat, you can at least sneak a few pages in during commercials. With only one Android phone available today, you still have time to build a great Android App get it into the Android Market before so many Google loyalists herd over to that platform.

Happy Reading!
