Ask HN: Android application developement resources

I have an Android phone for some months now and was planning to plunge into its app development. I do have a couple of good ideas but haven't been able to get started on the actual dev part. I found the google dev articles too textual. Also, I have no prior experience of Java but have development experience in C and Flex/Flashbuilder. How do i get started? What are some good resources to follow?
