Well the android is coming soon (Fall)
I would love to know the process of uploading to android, and becoming an android dev
Is the android market a little more difficult to get approved like the Mac AppStore?
Do you have to pay money to become a dev like apples $100 fee?
How long for the approval process?
Who does the approval proccess goto?
Do apps that suck get rejected?
How do you check sales?
Etc

http://photics.com/registration-approved-photics-the-android-market What approval process? No, it's Android... even malware makes it onto the Android Market. :-p Google Checkout... it's pretty neat... sales tax is tricky for me though. Google doesn't manage sales tax like Apple. New York has so many different rates and tax zones. That means I have to check that the right amount was charged for sales in upstate New York, as compared to New York City... very tedious. Google doesn't guarantee accuracy on their automatic calucations either, so I had to check their work. I still have a -5¢ on my account because I issued a refund to a customer (It was either a Textbook sale or a Sound Effects sale... regular Google Checkout Orders get mixed in.). Heh... maybe I should start selling Android apps again.
Seriously, I was excited to see Android on the roadmap, but after a little research, it's not that big of a deal. Still a new demographic, but doesn't look promising as far as getting your game out to people. Especially if it costs anything.
