Well, there can be different business models tied to this. I would assume that some applications will be distributed freely, some of them will be shareware and, for example, users can purchase licenses either from the portal or from inside application itself. What Google will need for sure is to have both Web and Android versions of this portal (which will be sort of SlideME or DroidStar type of application, or similar to iPhone's Installer). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Challenge" group.
