For easy playing with just using a pc: 
just discovered a livecd with android 1.5 .

Can also be run in vmware, virtualbox etc.

- got the 2 iso-parts from 
  http://code.google.com/p/live-android/downloads/list
- cat-ed those together
- executed 
  sudo kvm --soundhw all -boot d -m 512 -name android \
  -cdrom /mnt/store/isos/liveandroid_0.2.iso \
  -net nic,vlan=1,macaddr=de:ad:be:ef:00:04,model=pcnet \
  -net tap,vlan=1,script=/mnt/store/kvm/qemu_add_tap_to_kvm0
  (only interesting part is probably pcnet nic hardwaretype,
  tried others that are not supported by this android-image)
- used http://code.google.com/p/live-android/wiki/howtouse
  to configure networking inside the booted vm
