*** Can anyone at Google explain why some G1s can see paid apps while others can't? ****
I don't believe this is a matter of an OTA updates but rather datacenter propagation thus it would depend on which Android Market datacenter the G1 is pinging. In my case I have 2 G1s and 1 can see the paid apps while the other doesn't..could only assume they are both pinging the same DC. (I have already tried the reboot theory to no avail) Any formal explanation for this???

So maybe there are just a handful of people treating the return policy as a "try before you buy" service. I am just hoping that I find a way to read reviews and access the paid apps market from my ADP1 soon. ---snctln www.snctln.com On Feb 20, 1:04 am, Al Sutton <[email protected]> wrote: > There are some useful stats at; > > http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/02/19/pinch-media-data-shows-the-avera... > > Which cover application usage over time for an iPhone app. I would > expect the model to be similar for Android apps, although I think the 24 > hour return period may skew the usage pattern to cause a bigger drop-off > in the first 24 hours. > > To me 50% is very high, it shows people are treating it as a > try-before-you-really-buy method. > > Al. > > > > snctln wrote: > > I can't see them from my APD1 but I have had a handful of sales... of > > course half of them were canceled (ie user requested a refund) > > > I wonder if that is what I should expect, half of all sale will end in > > a refund, and I don't have access to my own paid apps on my > > "developer" phone to be able to see what people are leaving in the > > comments. > > > Hopefully this will not be the norm.
