China is a very different market.

Each carriers is working on running its own app store that supports
different platforms(like app stores inside carrier app store).  The 3
carriers are very powerful so that you won't see a standalone app
store like Apple App Store across carriers.  The traditional way of
paying apps via credit card doesn't work in China cause most Chinese
still don't have credit cards.

oPhone SDK is based on Android 1.1.  It integrates with China Mobile's
services.  You can easily port and localize your Android app to
oPhone.
