[android-developers] android.os.Build.MANUFACTURER

Is this no longer available?   I find it here:  http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.html#MANUFACTURER  but when I try to use eclipse just gives me an error.   

The reason I am looking for something like this is to make my unique id something more substantial.   Since it appears that android.provider.Settings.Secure.ANDROID_ID cannot be trusted to give back a 16 digit hex number and the IMEI is probably not on devices without phone guts I am trying to create my own.   I was going to use the manufacturer since I would assume that each one would burn a unique ANDROID_ID into the device but it does not seem to be there anymore.  I suppose I could use the android.os.Build.PRODUCT if it is going to be around for successive builds.
