[Android] アンドロイドマーケット開始

If you're a developer, you will be able to register and upload your applications starting next Monday, 2008-10-27, when we've wrapped up a few final details. In order to make sure that each developer is authenticated and responsible for their apps, you will need to register and pay a one time $25 application fee. Once registered, your apps can be made available to users without further validation or approval.

Starting in early Q1, developers will also be able to distribute paid apps in addition to free apps. Developers will get 70% of the revenue from each purchase; the remaining amount goes to carriers and billing settlement fees―Google does not take a percentage. We believe this revenue model creates a fair and positive experience for users, developers, and carrier

10月27日から開発者の登録が開始される。登録料は$25。来年度から有料のアプリも登録できる。30％はキャリアと通信費にあてられ、70％が取得できる。Googleは、ここからはお金をとらない。
なかなかよい感じですね。
