generic_android_application.in_the_making

aim: to have an application supporting mobile + tablet screens sizes which has tabbed navigation for API >= 7. also it must has the ability to connect to a web service, pull down data (in xml), parse it and then persist in sqlite database.

features:
-syncs to an app engine webservice for its gig guide details. it uses http as the protocol and XmlPullParser to parse the document tree. skeletal at this stage but nonetheless is communicating to the backend service properly.
-using fragments to support both mobile and tablet screen sizes.
-support for fragment use on platforms using API < 11. Done using the support li brary-v4.
-using ActionBarSherlock to allow ActionBar and Tabbed Navigation for API < 11.


TODOS

-add text content to management & services pages.
-tablet layout optimised version.
