I really don't belive that Android Market has bright future. Everything is going slow and it is strange that developers can spend 400 dollars plus shipping... but we can't sell applications.
But that is not the only reason I think that Android Market is going to loose its role. In future Samsung, LG and probably all other phone manufacturers will have their own Markets. Android OS is open source project and Samsung and other will probably remove Android Market from their phones and will put shortcut to their Market. Why to loose such opportunity? They want money and don't want to give 30% to Google when they can earn that money instead. I guess that phone manufacturers will create much better markets and when they do that it will be faster and better because they need to earn money now when phone sales are down. So we'll have to wait few more months but I guess that from october or november we'll have few first class markets available and only smaller companies that don't have its own Markets will let Google to ear 30%... But how long it will take before even smaller players create their Markets is just question of time. In the meanwhile switch to iPhone, Symbian or just continue to write Android applications and the real markets will come...
