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

The only apps that are hidden are copy-protected apps. If their is a priced application that does not use that feature, it currently shows up on my dev phone. One catch that I have discovered is that you need to have a SIM in the phone. Inder On Thu, Feb 26, 2009 at 3:48 AM, vendor.net

Android Market is one of the powers of Android. One market for all android apps. The other companies like Samsung, Motorola and etc. have no big interest to make a different Markets. The center market is a big plus. There is no need to decentralize it. But this is not the point. My question is

Yeah, big disappointment here. Google sells Developer phones to many countries like Canada but from here we are not allowed to sell application or view paid applications. This is not looking good for me since I don't see they will give a solution anytime soon. I'm really thinking to stop

Because on a phone with root access, you can easily copy a copy-protected.apk file and that would defeat the purpose of copy-protection. A developer who wants to reach a broader segment of the market should not use the copy-protection feature. Inder On Thu, Feb 26, 2009 at 10:39 AM, somatt
