Josh, He also raised the following points;
- Presentation of applications - By default all apps are in one bucket (so apps which generate the 30% for Google et al. and help a developer pay bills get no extra visibility). - Apps which developers release updates for have the same visibility as apps that developers abandon after a single release. Now I know that you can filter by paid or free only apps, but how many of us would have found that option easily?

If you take his estimation of deployed devices, 20-to-1 which is probably in the ballpark... you should see exactly that number of sales. 3 weeks = 21 days. Hardly newsworthy if you ask me. That said, his critsicisms of the Market's flaws are dead on and should be fixed. -J On Sun, Apr 19, 2009 at 10:00 AM, Al Sutton <[email protected]> wrote: > > http://twitter.com/markusN > > One app, two platforms, and some conclusions that hopefully Google > will take on board. > > Al. > > > --- > > * Written an Android App? - List it at http://andappstore.com/ * > > ====== > Funky Android Limited is registered in England & Wales with the > company number 6741909.
