It's a good thing Google is providing high level app architecture frameworks and related classes. Writing non-trivial apps requires strong architecture, but using thrid party libraries to accelerate development of high level app architecture leads to every shop having an idiosyncratic development approach. I am ambivalent about Google providing an ORM framework. While many coders are very used to an ORM, Android's ContentProvider, Cursor, and Adapter classes make it easy to do without ORM. But this approach is very Android-specific. It can be hard to "transliterate" code to this approach.
