I have been using NetBeans with android plugin on ubuntu, because i like the IDE better then Eclipse. If you, however, like(or at least don’t mind) Eclipse, i strongly suggest you use it rather then netbeans because the android plugin is more mature and ‘user friendly’. For example it has real time resource parsing which is done on save while in netbeans its done only when you compile the project (which is not too convinient for code completion) etc.
