I feeling that the UIPickerView of iPhone is good idea and easy to use on touchable mobile phone. I am strange that why Android SDK do not provide the same effect widget ?
or maybe coder have to clone it on Android ?
any help ... thanks ...

I think the spinner would be the android equivalent. It doesn't have the same eye candy, but functionally it would be the same. You could write your own widget to add the eye candy and animations though.

Can you have multiple columns in the spinner though? That's what makes the UIPickerView so powerful and is often used (date picking for example)... how do Android apps do date picking?

There is a DatePicker Widget, although I have never used it.(http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/DatePicker.html)

The DatePicker is a Major hassle(If your trying to make a dialog box show), they have a drop down which is great and handy and I wish that iPhone had one.

FWIW, I was looking for the same thing, and I found this -> http://code.google.com/p/android-wheel. I have not used it yet, but I am thinking about giving it a whirl.
