AndAppStore has some links to OEMs who may be interested in this idea, but they'd probably want to ensure testing was appropriate so that it wouldn't tarnish their brand, so it will cost. As I understand things the current costs on other platforms for "certification" are; Apple : US$99 per year for unlimited apps Microsoft : US$99 per submission RIM : US$200 in advance for every 10 apps So, given the number of Android devs who'd want to be involved would be quite low (because it's not a requirement for free apps and most Android developers produce free apps), I can see it costing around the US$75 - US$100 USD per app mark.

Continue to allow most apps but for an extra small fee have apps given a seal of approval? This would give confidence in the market, something iPhone users enjoy and Apple uses for marketing. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
