If you add the line
android:singleLine="True" to you XML declaration.

If you do that, the soft keyboard will show a Done button.

If you don't want to do that, you can exit the keyboard using the
backbutton key.

Hope this helps,

Thanks. How does the emulator mirror the actions of a real life
device? Would this not be an issue in this instance?

My comments were based on device behavior (ADP1 and Google ION).

You are right, the emulator does not reflect it, at least not to my
knowledge :)
