At Google's IO Conference there was news reported about the possibility that Google may open its own online store for Android applications. The store is great news for developers looking to distribute their applications. Andy Rubin, the project leader for Google, stated "it would be a great benefit to the Android community to provide a place where people can go to safely and securely download content and where a billing system would allow developers to get paid for their effort. We wouldn't have done our job if we didn't provide something that helps developers get distribution."
