Consume ado.net data service from android 2.1

Question

I have a ado.net data service created using VS 2008 sp 1 that is hosted that I want to consume via HTTP and JSON from Android 2.1? Does anyone have sample code on how to do CRUD operations easily do this? I heard Restlet makes this very easy but can't seem to find sample Android code on doing this. If someone can post a tutorial with some actual code that would be greatly appreciated.
