Iphone was a success since day one.

So I guess its a leap of faith thing.

Either we put the time in now, cross our fingers and hope that things
pick up.

Or we pull out now on the assumption that a future goldrush is not
going to happen.

Or maybe a wait and see approach - have a few things half finished and
if there are signs of the market picking up, then finish them before
competitors come along.

Very tricky situation - I wonder if iPhone market looked like this
before it took off ... not sure as I wasn't paying attention ...

No, I don't think so. I think I have wasted an awful lot of time and
effort for ridiculously low results and I'm sick about it.

the Weather Channnel 250k+

ShopSavvy 250k+
YellowPages <250K

With just these 4 apps there have been almost 1 Million downloads ...

Will there ever be a catchup with iPhone ... I think not and who cares ... If 
the world eventually gets 20 android models world wide ... then I think it may 
easy leave iPhone downloads in the dust ..

And Individual app selling a million+ copies will be a feat ... but not in the 
range of impossible ..

Asking because we all know iPhone apps do - even those as imaginative
(!) as iFart.

Currently on Android, #1 paid app (according to aTrackDog) is
PowerManager and that has sold somewhere between 5,000 and 10,000. Not
bad - I guess dev must have made something like $5,000 - but not a
life-changing amount, like we are used to hearing about from iPhone
devs.

So what do we think? Will Android ever see the sort of sales that
would allow us to give up the dayjob?!
