I've upgraded from 2.2 to 2.3. I originally thought that I had just a problem with my own Google maps application not working and posted a question link text
I now realise that the problem is much wider, in that non of the built in applications present when a new AVD is created will work. For example the 'maps' application gives "Network failure - This application requires a working data connection". The browser won't connect to Google or anything else. This happens with the AVDs that existed before I upgraded and with those created from the command line after the upgrade, for all API levels. I have all the necessary components I think:
I've tried to describe this problem in it's simplest terms by decoupling it from any reference to Eclipse and to applications that I have written. The logcat for a newly created AVD set to filter out all but errors is very long but I'm posting those that I think might be relevant:

I'm using Vista 64 bit, JDK and Eclipse are 32 bits (I have had no problems before following the SDK from 0.0 right up to 2.2). I noticed in another post that it's necessary to add ...platform-tools to the PATH. I couldn't find any reference to this in the release notes, but I did it anyway.
I'm totally stuck now. Please can anyone suggest what the problem might be?
UPDATE 1540 GMT
Turned off Norton Internet Security Deleted the sdk folder, installed the starter pack and all the API levels.
Deleted c:\users\nick.android (Got rid of all the AVDS)
Recreated one AVD (Level 9 with Google maps)from the SDK Manager and started it.
Net result - just the same errors, browser won't connect, nor will the built in maps application.
UPDATE 1920 GMT
I had an older SDK saved to a memory stick. I copied this to a temp directory
I didn't change PATH, but clicked on the SDK Manager in this temp folder and started up an existing API level 7 AVD. The browser and the built in maps application both worked fine.
Filed bug report link text
UPDATE 9th December 1325 GMT
I managed to roll back to SDK 2.1 and found an old ADT plugin (0.9.9). I've got Eclipse 3.5 set up to use SDK 2.1 and Eclipse 3.6 to use SDK 2.3. (I know 3.6 isn't recommended but it used to work OK with SDK 2.1 although code completion was slow). SDK 2.3 emulators are still failing to connect.
If you are thinking of investigating this problem, please backup your earlier SDK and plugin, else you might end up with a useless development environment.
A brand newly created AVD in 2.3 gives:
