    I am exploring Android development using C#. MonoDroid seems to be a very good tool but comes with a hefty price tag. Is there a free alternative?

      Are you doing this because you prefer C# or because you don't want to learn Java? It's not hard to learn Java if you already know C# plus all the tools, guides and forums target Java. You'll be making you're life a lot harder than it needs to be if you don't go with the flow.

        I already know Java (just the language), it's just that a familiar environment will make things easier and require lot less learning.

        I agree with you. But after exploring MonoDroid, it seems to be wonderful and I was thinking if I can come up with my own Open Source alternative.
