I sent some coins to an address I controlled with the Android Wallet, but they've not been confirmed by the wallet (but have been added to a block) so I can't move them out from that address. I was thinking of importing the private key to Armory, but it seems like that's not possible as the Android private key has a different format.

It is possible to regain access to those coins with the unencrypted Android private key and the address I control?

Just temporarily use blockchain
You'll probably lose the key with armory

That worked, finding a way to dump all the private key backups to test was an ordeal though.

I'm just wondering why the android key wouldn't import to armory? The app calls it a base58, and Armory specifically states that they should allow such keys to be imported.

It might be compressed
There's many versions
The calculator on brain wallet may help you convert it
But blockchain now also gives you many formats which you could import
