Android's "Flea Market" Needs Urgent Attention
andylim writes "According to Barry O'Neil, ex-President of Namco Bandai Network Europe, Google needs to understand that a constantly evolving 'beta' product doesn't cut it. It has to learn from the mistakes of the Java business in order to save Android. 'If Google is to present a threat to the Apple App Store ecosystem, it needs to address discovery and purchasing as a matter of urgency, or abandon control and hand over the entire management of the Android Market to carriers, OEMs and trusted publishers.'"
Ok, give me a few million dollars, all of the technology already developed and I will. It is hard to -start- a cell phone company because the initial costs are high (similar to an ISP), but once you get going, towers and the like are cheap when compared to when you are first starting.
Taxation is legalized theft, no more, no less.
