Sorry Mark, I guess I didn't make myself clear.
What I meant to say was that I have not seen an example where a
Spinner and Adapter is configured with something other an Array/Cursor
of String. Ie an Array of some complex Objec.

But I think I have figured out what I need now.
I should render the non String items by overriding #getView and
#getDropDownView, correct?

Re the second part of my question - thanks.
I hadn't realized all the resources were in the data/res folder of the
sdk.
That will be very useful.
