I posted this initially on the Peterborough LUG list but I wonder if there are more Android experts here?

Anyone here played with Android app development?
It's something I've wanted to try my hand at, and just needed an app to work on. I now have one (a specific development for a customer, it's not going to be App of the Year 2013 on Google Play or anything :-)
"All" it needs to do is create a secure connection (SSH) to an existing server using a pre-shared key, then tunnel a connection through it to a web server, displaying the web content in the app. Most of the infrastructure is already set up, although the web pages will want some tweaking to suit the Android device (although not too much as it'll probably be a tablet not a phone).
Some time ago I did install the development tools and get as far as a simple "hello world" app, although I can't claim to remember much of the experience, so I'm starting very much from the position of a novice.
