Android: using 9-patch and text for ItemizedOverlay on MapView

Question

In my application, I would like to mark different points on the map. Now I'm wondering if there is a way to use a simple image with 9 patches and add the name of the place as text to it, or will I need to do everything myself (including text) in the method draw() ItemizedOverlay?
