These axis have been pointed out to be wrong and it is lurking in the background. I need to revisit it, thanks for taking the time to comment. @Jubei:

I'm currently watching Eclipse updating and wondering if I want to do some standard Java coding or just dive straight into an Android project.... Hmmmm. I've read half my Head First Java book, it's all interesting stuff. Written about 30 lines of code, possibly diving into trying to write and Android app might be a bit complex. Very cool.
