I would recommend you use Android's built-in support for multiple-choice lists (CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE).

The List11.java SDK sample demonstrates this. You can also find a project from one of my tutorials that uses it here.

You can still use this technique with your own layout, so long as you include a CheckedTextView with android:id="@android:id/text1" as shown in the android.R.layout.simple_list_item_multiple_choice resource, a copy of which ships with your SDK.

Also, see this question and this question and this question and this question.
