[android-developers] How to use the ViewPager control

I'm planning a port of some apps from Windows Phone 7 over to
Android. Going through some blogs I find an "extra" android control
called the ViewPager which seems like a poor man's version of the WP7
Pivot control. I would like to try using this control.

I plan on targeting Android 2.3.3 (API 10) because the info at
http://developer.android.com/resources/dashboard/platform-versions.html
tells me that any level higher would run on relatively few phones.
So, my Eclipse is setup for that level.

Using the Eclipse SDK manager I tried to add the Extras Android
support package but it would not add giving the errors pasted below.
I don't know what all those errors mean but I'm wondering if I need to
be running API 11 to be able to use the compatibiity package aka the
android Support Package?

So, I suppose my final question is: can I use the VeiwPager control if
I target Android 2.3.3? Also, is there any downloadable complete
solution that uses the viewPager? All I can find are "tutorials" that
show code snippets.
Thanks,
Dean
