Hello Jay, We appreciate that you are creating apps for our Motorola’s recently announced Android-based devices. The App Accelerator Program was designed to give you ongoing early access to development and testing resources for pre-released devices, so that you can get a head start on your development. Through the early submission process, we are aware of your app - and if it is in the “Publishing” state - we also know that it has been tested on the new device and is ready to be distributed when devices begin shipping.
Of course we would like to help make sure that apps that run well on and take advantage of features in Motorola devices get distributed in as many channels as possible, including carrier stores, Android Market, and other distributors. And we also want to make sure that third-party applications are promoted as part of overall experience for Motorola devices. We thank you for your patience as we continue to evolve the App Accelerator program to better meet developer’s needs and please know that we will keep you informed of promotional or distribution opportunities as they become available. Best Regards, Steve Graff MOTODEV Motorola, Inc.
