+Any raw assets you want to be deployed with your application can be placed in
+this directory (and child directories) and given a Build Action of "AndroidAsset".
+
+These files will be deployed with you package and will be accessible using Android's
+AssetManager, like this:
+
+public class ReadAsset : Activity
+{
+    protected override void OnCreate (Bundle bundle)
+    {
+        base.OnCreate (bundle);
+
+        InputStream input = Assets.Open ("my_asset.txt");
+    }
+}
+
+Additionally, some Android functions will automatically load asset files:
+
+Typeface tf = Typeface.CreateFromAsset (Context.Assets, "fonts/samplefont.ttf");
