Android Development: The Beginning

About two weeks ago, I bought the Android Dev Phone 1. Its essentially the T-Mobile G1, but with all the debugging extras, and totally unlocked (SIM unlocked, bootloader unlocked, and rooted). I have been using it as my regular phone, since if I am to develop for the platform, I have to know about the user experience. I need to know what other apps do and look like, and what some users may come to experience from applications in general.
