Been reading Professional Android 2 Application Development by Reto Meier which gives a great overview and introduction to Android development.
I'm only a couple of chapters in it so far, but some of it reminds me of how Flex works.
Both have a XML based language to layout the UI, XML for Android and MXML for Flex. A scripting language that can be used to create the UI, ActionScript in the Flex world and Java in the Android world.
Of course there is more that differentiates the two, but from my perspective as a Flex developer I do see a lot of similarities between the two platforms.
