Today, Google released their Android SDK amidst massive hoopla. I was pretty excited about this too, but after reading some tutorials, it just looks like a slightly beefed-up Java ME. I guess the intent is to create better compatibility among different phones, but frankly, I don't see what all the hoopla is about, other than the fact that Google is behind it. What am I missing?

Update:
After more reading I've changed my mind. It seems to me that the iPhone is still way "cooler" than any gPhone (it better be for how much it costs), but I can see how much value the top-to-bottom stack of software that Android offers can really help compatibility between different phones.
