Ok sorry to highjack the post by being out of subject but I really still don't get it. Why would the carrier get a 30% cut ? They are just dumb internet pipes to our apps, aren't they, so for the market as well. If it's Google's decision to help them promote Android Devices, then there is still one mistery : Google doesn't need carriers to run the market which is really just a web service like any other. So why don't they just keep the 30% they wanted to give to the carriers, and open up the Market to paid app everywhere in the world ? And maybe put that money bak into working on the current market (hint, hint : ) (Notice the double oos topic in just one post, I'm on fire : ) Yahel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
