One of the major drawbacks of Android development is in the missing sources of the framework. At least in my opinion. Attaching the sources seemed like a logical step to me. Easy enough I found Google's step-by-step instructions on how to download the source files from the repo (http://source.android.com/download). This took a huge amount of time and produced some 8 GBs of data on disk. Pretty huge for just some source, huh?
So I kept on searching. Luckily, I found this post, providing zipped pure sources for SDK 1.5, 1.6, and 2.1. Zip files are just around 22 MB. You just create a folder named 'sources' for the related platform and extract the files/folders from the zip into that folder. Once you refresh your projects in Eclipse your sources are there. Awesome!
