I don't think that we have general guidance, it's a bit of an "It depends" 
problem space.

It could also use some profiling.

Aside: a Build action of Content is useless. It means ~nothing in Mono for 
Android; don't use it.

For "generic" data, I'd be inclined to prefer a build action of 
EmbeddedResource, as this will be portable and reusable elsewhere (WP7, .NET). 
Assets and "raw" resources are specific to Mono for Android.

However, I don't know what the performance implications are. It would be useful 
if someone could profile Assets (Assets\Foo.dat and AndroidAsset build action) 
vs. raw resources (Resources\raw\Foo.dat and AndroidResource build action) vs. 
EmbeddedResource. :-)
