android map wms

I am completly new in the whole Geo IT materia :/, and my task is to check some ways to view a map in Android, overlayed with Vector data.

I have an WMS and WFS service where I can get the Data. But how can I integrate this in Android ?

Google Maps Api is not Free for use comercial right ? Nutiteq, too ? Does osmdroid supports stuff like wms/wfs ? what about mapforge ? Mapforge is only for offline maps right ?

Does someone got nice tutorials how to build such maps ?

Whats about Shape Files, can i combine a osm map tiles with shape files which contain the vector data ?

I know that are much questions, at the moment i feel like a fish thrown in a new sea. I would be very happy if someone could help me a bit :)

and sorry 4 my bad english.

Regards Matthias
