How important is it to be able to try out your apps on your own phone?
What is the minimum financial investment to try your hand at Android development? My understanding is, there's no cost to start developing, but there's some cost involved in getting your app hosted. Is that accurate?

Yes, to submit an app to the Android Market, you need an Android developer account which costs an initial one-time-fee of $20.
try using Appcelerator Titanium. Code in Javascript, deploy on iOS + Android. They have enough tutorials on the site for free.
are you into apps or games?

I don't really care if it's an app or a game, as long as it's small and easy to build, because I would like to learn the process of developing,publishing, and earning a few bucks as fast as possible.
Thanks for suggestions.
IOS and Android are so different, so if you wanna start, make your choice!
If you like/use java try Android, IOS is on Objective-C.
Also, for IOS you need a mac for development SDK, for Android any os is supported.
and then search for tutorial and quick starts, the net is full :)
enjoy!

Thanks, I dont have mac,and I have little experience in Java so I guess Android is the way:)
I read here about developing apps for iOS and Android and I would like to learn more about it. How to start? What tools should I download? What programming language should I learn? iOS or Android? I never did any app developing so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for any advice. Live long and prosper:)
PS.I would be glad to answer any questions you might have about me.
