Setting a minimum and maximum value for android edit text preference

Question

I was wondering if there is a way to enforce a minimum value for the edit text preference.

Here's my node for the EditTextPreference in the preference screen xml file:

    <EditTextPreference
    android:id="@+id/txt_slideshow_speed"
    android:key="@string/prefSlideShowSpeedKey"
    android:persistent="true"
    android:inputType="number"
    android:max="3600"
    android:dialogTitle="Slideshow Speed (seconds)"
    android:defaultValue="@string/defaultSlideShowSpeedValue"
    android:title="Slideshow Speed" />

First, you will need to get the EditText programmatically via getEditText(). Then, check out this link to set an input filter on your EditText.
