Hard not to agree with you. I think Amazon poses a good step forward if
they quickly expand outside of the United States, simply because they're
very much global already where Google Checkout is not.

It's not a technical issue. It's a business one. The first company
that works out agreements with most of the world's mobile carriers to
allow integrated billing for apps will quickly become the dominant
application channel. As soon as users can click on a buy button and
have the app charged to their phone bill as a monthly fee, all other
channels will wither away. 99 cent apps will become 10 cents per
month. Users will be able to turn off billing by uninstalling the app,
which will make them more willing to try out new ones. Apps that are
useful will generate recurring revenue for the developers for years.
The short message is that Android apps should be billed the same way
99% of the world pays for phone services - monthly and on a single
bill.
