The debug key is in the .android directory on your hard drive if your install of Eclipse and ADT are complete.

^ ever get this resolved? my Google Maps are working great in the emulator but not on the device. i get pin points and grey tiles, but no google map tiles. this is a BT 1.5 for Android app. i'm almost positive i've got my API keys straight and IIRC there is the warning in BT 1.5 that maps may or may not work.....
