How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- High Quality WMV (PC, Xbox, MCE)
- MP3 (Audio only)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- High Quality MP4 (iPad, PC)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
Today we have released the Windows Azure Toolkit for Android, along with significant updates to the toolkits for Windows Phone and iOS. You can get the toolkits here:
The purpose of these toolkits is to make it easier for mobile device developers across device platforms to build applications that use Windows Azure to host services.
The initial release of the Windows Azure Toolkit for Android includes native libraries (for storage and authentication), a sample application, and unit tests. The updates for Windows Phone include support for SQL Azure in the Windows Azure Toolkit for Windows Phone, full support for Windows Azure Toolkits for Visual Studio 1.4 and Windows Developer Phone Tools 7.1 RC, and the full source code to the sample BabelCam which is now available in the Windows Phone Marketplace.

I need a proper documentation for the android app. I am not a java guy but for some demo purpose i want to develop small app on android which will get the data from the Azure Cloud. I downloaded the toolkit but because of not having documentation i am not able to implement this.
Need help please.
I do think that with all of the fanfare that a Windows Azure Toolkit for Android is out, yet, they give virtually zero documentation.
Where is the documentation on using this?
