New SDK Released! 0.9 Beta now available.

Google has FINALLY released a new public SDK. Google's Dan Morrill writes:

I'm pretty happy today, for two reasons. First, I'm happy because I get to let everyone know that we're releasing a beta SDK. You can read about the new Android 0.9 SDK beta at the Android Developers' Site, or if you want to get straight to the bits, you can visit the download page. Once you've got it, be sure to visit our Developer Forum if you have any questions.

[...]

you're probably wondering what's actually new in the SDK. Well, you should read the Release Notes, the Change Overview and the API Delta Report for all the details, but here are a few highlights:

  • First and most obviously, the new Home screen is included, along with a ton of UI changes for 1.0.
  • Some new applications are included: an Alarm Clock, Calculator, Camera, Music player, Picture viewer, and Messaging (for SMS/MMS conversations.)
  • Several new development tools were added, such as a graphical preview for XML layouts for users of Eclipse, and a tool for constructing 9-patch images.
  • Since we've got a new Home screen application now, we thought the now-obsolete version from the M5 early-look SDK might be helpful to developers, so its source is included as a sample.
  • A number of new APIs are fleshed out and improved, and others are now close to their final forms for 1.0.
  • Tons of bugs were fixed, of course. (If you had problems with the MediaPlayer, try it now!)

Android developers have been (not so) patiently awaiting for this release! Get porting!

Update: I have added some screenshots after the break...it's looking very nice!

I am loving the new beta features of TwitterBerry… trying to figure out how to quickly return to the top of the timeline lists, however- refresh doesn’t do it… I’m using a Storm, and not yet familiar with shortcuts I used to use on a Pearl keyboard. su deposu polyester Anyone?

The standard UI theme/skin in the screenshots looks pretty sucky compared to the likes of an iPhone UI.

Really, they removed 2 of the most important services that would allow Android run as a universal, remote controller :(
