Mobile Portland: The Android Market -- Google's App Store Alternative May 26, 2009

NOTE: Moved to Tuesday because of Memorial Day

Speaker: Isaac Potoczny-Jones

Everyone has heard the stories about the iPhone's App Store and the success some developers are finding selling iPhone applications. What people know less about is Google's Android Market which started allowing people to sell applications in February.

Learn about the similarities and difference between the Android Market and the iPhone App Store. Take a look at what's selling and the opportunities that will come as more Android-based handsets reach the market.
