Answer 1

From the documentation:

The TabActivity class is deprecated. New applications should use Fragments instead of this class; to continue to run on older devices, you can use the v4 support library which provides a version of the Fragment API that is compatible down to DONUT.

Here are some Fragment tutorials to help you get started.

Also, check out FragmentTabs.java on the developer site.
