Android and Silverlight - a few thoughts

It's no secret that I've not been spending all my spare time on Silverlight lately.  Android's got a hold on me now.  :-)  I love working on the Android platform.  And when I get this Swing by Swing phone app off to where Terrence there can finish the mapping piece, I'll be ready to do one for EZBurn Manufacturing that will allow them to manage their inventory in the shop.  That'll be a great exercise.  Maybe I can put that out to the Android store.

There's only one problem with the Android platform development tools.  ( OK, TWO problems, but don't get me started on Eclipse.)  There's nothing that will compare to Blend for Silverlight when it comes to getting your UI smooth and professional.  I really really miss that when working with Android xml files.  

Anyone have time to write a xaml to xml converter?  Anyone know where I can find one?

Thanks for your time, have a great day.

Bobbi
