If I were you I would start looking at some cloud IDEs. The one I have used is Cloud9 on AWS. It's not for everyone and it certainly does not replace a powerful machine you can own and take it with you all the time but it can get the job done.

That is the future, the whole IDE in cloud and build on remote servers but still, there are lot of issues around connectivity in many countries. And as an Android developer myself, those things aren't an option for me yet :P

I am not ignoring the fact that it is difficult specially if you need an hardware like phone. I know simulator might not even be feasible on cloud yet. But it's definitely not future for many other situations. It was just a piece of advice for the general audience or readers here. Up to them to take it or leave it. At the end the intutive decisions you make are generally the best and lead to more creative solutions.
