An acquaintance who runs a small business (not in the mobile area) and employs one programmer, is wondering whether to develop apps for Android Marketplace. He wondered whether it is financial sense to do so and I recommended the Android marketplace, but do not want to mislead him. While the commercial success of the iPhone marketplace is well known, what has been the commercial story of apps sold in the Android marketplace? How many downloads per month, how much sales volume in $, average price of an app, how many are free downloads vs paid, how many apps, how many G1 phones are around etc. Are there any reliable statistics from Google on this?
