Regarding making apps

[Talon Starblade]

How many of you have actually tried working with Android’s Developer kit?

I ask for a few reasons: mostly I’m looking for info on how hard it is to use, weather its similar to playing with Visual Basic at all… Or if you’d need a frelling computer degree in programming to do anything with this?

Take a look at Basic4Android. It's very VB-like and support is first rate.
