If you've been looking to make a little bank off that awesome flatulence soundboard you put together for the G1, take heart: Google's ready for you. As expected, it's been announced that developers can now submit end-user pricing for applications in the US version of the Android Market, with Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, France, and Spain coming later in the quarter. It's no big surprise that Google Checkout is the only form of payment accepted, which publishers can sign up for right from the dev site. As for you Yanks, look for the first paid apps to be available for download in the middle of next week.Update: We've just gotten official word from T-Mobile that the G1's RC33 build -- which has just been rolled out to owners -- contains paid app support. Thumbs-up for spending money!
Lol, even though i have seen it all day, that mask showing up in the posts, on bags, in cars, etc is cracking me up!
It's pissing me off. It's an ad campaign plastered all over my favorite blogs. It's ugly, insulting, and really degrades my opinion of the sites that are doing it.
Seriously dude this pisses you off? Lol, come on it's funny. So what if it's an add campaign, EVERTHING is an ad at some level. If you came to the internet to avoid ads, ummm...yeah.
@Nate: Chill out and lighten up, dude. And no, it's not an ad campaign.
Uh oh, watch out everyone. Don't slip and fall on the puddle of tears Ms. "Drama Queen" Nate is crying out.
Of course its a campain for that bad movie.
I can't wait to see the quality of these Android apps and the percentage of good to bad apps. Anything goes at the Android Market. I hope Android Market is flooded with Fart apps and flashlight apps. Oooh, look, Android apps run in the background so it's gonna make Android 10X as good as OSX Mobile. I'm damn sure anxious to the game quality. Let's hope the Android Market doesn't close down shop in six months time. I hope developers charge an arm and a leg for Android apps. I hope Google lets all apps go through even if they're trojans and bandwidth suckers.
What's up with the mask? Am I missing some anniversary or what?
