I've been a developer for 14 years and am always looking out for "what's next." These days I spend most of my working (waking?) hours building custom IBM software-based applications for various companies. I've had a few opportunities over recent years to build mobile applications that run in microbrowsers and also native on Blackberries. I've really enjoyed working with mobile devices and when I "listened" in on the Android announcement I couldn't help but wonder if Google can change the mobile world like they've changed so many other things they've touched.
Then, I saw the Android Developer Challenge and I was inspired. I have a killer idea for an Android app and I'm working feverishly to get a phase I version ready for the March 3, 2008 cutoff.
More to come. Fun times...

Good luck with your idea. I’m also working on an application for the challenge. I hope you eventually post your idea. ...after the challenge of course.
I definitely will. As I dig into Android deeper, I'm realizing just how much I've taken on in this short timespan. Time to pare down the requirements and come up with a meaningful phase I!
Playing with Android sure is fun though. I'm looking forward to a world where developing great applications for mobile devices is this accessible.
