My app shows a list of items, where each line is an item title with its image asides, the line reserves 70% of space for text and 30% for image. Imagine what iphone app store looks like. Which view/layout combo is recommended for this purpose?
I googled and find this article:

Does this view sound good?
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
android:padding="6dip">
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/icon"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_marginRight="6dip"
android:src="@drawable/icon" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/secondLine"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="26dip"
android:layout_toRightOf="@id/icon"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:singleLine="true"
android:ellipsize="marquee"
android:text="Simple application that shows how to use RelativeLayout" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="@id/icon"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_above="@id/secondLine"
android:layout_alignWithParentIfMissing="true"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:text="My Application" />
