						<P>If you are new to Android and looking for a way to test some of the currently available Android applications, here is how to proceed :</p> <OL>
<li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">First get the Android SDK and unzip it somewhere on your hard drive</LI>
<li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Add SDK_ROOT to your system variables pointing to /tools folder under the sdk</LI>
<li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Run the emulator</LI>
<li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Copy the apk file to /tools folder</LI>
