As I have begun to tinker around with Android, I find more and more free tools for doing so. Here is a list of what I have found so far. I am sure (positive) it is not a complete list and please add to it if you care to. The Android SDK is a given for all of these solutions.
1) Eclipse and The Android ADT plugin - This is what I am using at present.
2) IntelliJ IDEA
3) MIT app inventor - I made a simple app with this - pretty cool
4) Appcelerator Titanium
5) Processing for Android
6) Phonegap
It's great to work with a system that gets so much support and coverage.
A blog about things that interest me and may interest you. You will find stuff on Eclipse, Java, Web Development, Windows, PC, Laptops, Android Phones and Tablets, Batteries, LED Lighting - anything is possible. ASR Search Engine

Building and deploying AIR apps in Eclipse using HTML and Javascript
Here is the setup I use for developing, building, and deploying Adobe air apps in Eclipse. I have the following installed on a USB drive:
1) Eclipse portable: Eclipse SDK Version: 3.7.2
2) Adobe AIR SDK
I create my project as a General project. Here is the structure I use:
cSS File Folder
inc File Folder - javascripts
page2.html
The must follow items are in red. The other items can really be named whatever you like. To use my external run configurations the project structure has to have the items in red above. The advantage to following this structure is I do not have to create a new external run config for each new project. Here's a "Hello World" project structure to illustrate the above.
When I am ready to test the app in AIR I use the following external run configuration:
Before running this configuration, you must select the ProjectName-app.xml file.
When I want to generate a certificate I use the following run configuration:
The certificate file cert.p12 will be in the base workspace directory.
To build the project as an AIR app for windows, I use the following run configuration:
Once again, before running this configuration, you must select the ProjectName-app.xml file.
When using these external run configurations, the most frequent error is caused by not selecting the ProjectName-app.xml file first.
