Please take a look at Android forum. Also, this is a list of links ( I did it for myself some time ago ) to create Android development environment:

Thanks, Sergey. This is a lot for information. I would definitely help :)
Please take into account that only a couple of first downloads need to be installed. Then, as soon as Android SDK is installed all the rest installations or updates usually done with Android SDK Manager ( very good and simple tool! ).
You can start with http://www.dragonfiresdk.com/
there is PhoneGap which supports all platforms , which also is based on web technologies.
