I am learning Android development on Eclipse. As I am a .NET developer, I am not very comfortable with either the Eclipse environment or the Android libraries. Here I have two options: I can go with Eclipse or MonoDroid for Visual Studio. Which one should be better for me?

I am a .Net Developer as well. And with the Monodevelop work I did. It was very difficult to get things to sync up correctly. the Eclipse development ended up being the way to go. Until they work all the kinks out of the Monodevelop debugger then eclipse is the way to go.
If you are going to pay for the license for monodevelop then that may be the way to go as the debugging on the Device is supposed to be better, but for my time and effort and the lack of good information or a trial of the MonoDevelop license to deploy on the devices it was a ditch effort. I decided to go with the Eclipse. Not to mention that Eclipse works the same on any platform as long as you can set it up.
It will be real nice when they get the monodevelop stuff working without a hitch. The ease of coding in visual studio is second to none. But like Tim says. Theres loads of stuff showing you what to do in Java. Not nearly as much in C#
