a nitpicky observation about the downloadable sample apps for the
latest android SDK.  if one wants to build and install them strictly
from the command line, it might be worth adding a top-level README
file pointing out that they are not build-ready.

  if folks want to pull them into eclipse, then they won't have an
issue, but from the command line, it appears that at least two things
have to be done:

  * create a trivial build.xml file for ant
  * create a "local.properties" file defining a value for "sdk.dir"

  it might be that the above is painfully obvious for most folks, but
for total beginners, it wouldn't hurt to make sure they understand
what has to be done.
