  • Microsoft tweaks Windows Phone Marketplace policies for the better

    Microsoft tweaks Windows Phone Marketplace policies for the better

    Posted on June 7, 2010 | No Comments
    Previously, the $99 that Windows Phone devs paid annually to get access to the Marketplace covered up to five app submissions -- but Microsoft looks like it's willing to play ball in an effort to drum up more interest in third-party development ahead of Windows Phone 7's release by chucking the five-app cap. Well, sort of -- paid apps will have unlimited submissions, but free apps will still be limited to five per yearly cycle, with additional submissions running $19.99 each. Additionally, Microsoft is taking the wraps off its Trial API for helping developers enforce trial functionality prior to purchase, details on its push notification service, and a new option that lets publishes push their apps globally -- to every localized store in the Marketplace's reach -- in one fell swoop. The company says that it has "listened to developers and responded to changing customer behavior to make Marketplace an even better experience for all," and it certainly seems like a step in the right direction -- but we'll admit, we'd still love to see free app submissions go unlimited (what can we say, we've got a soft spot for freebies).

    People like mobile ads, says JiWire

    Posted on May 12, 2010 | No Comments
    JiWire has been watching mobile and in-app advertising, and says that "Advertisements in mobile applications are especially effective." Their new report, released today, "examines device use, consumer adoption of Wi-Fi and consumer preferences for mobile content and advertising delivery." Interesting take-aways from the report include the fact that iPhone has surpassed iPod Touch in number of ads delivered, and that the iPad has had a non-trivial effect on WiFi usage, indicating that people really do want to access content on-the-go but might not want to do so with a phone or a laptop.

  • Gadgets of days gone by: Palm III

    Gadgets of days gone by: Palm III

    Posted on May 5, 2010 | No Comments
    This week at CrunchGear, we're looking back at some of our favorite gadgets from the not-so-distant past — old phones, computers, media players, toys... those devices that still stand out in our memories despite their obsolescence. Feel free to contribute some of your own nostalgia. The Palm III was the first truly portable computing device I ever owned. Oh sure, I had a laptop at the time, but it was hardly something that could be considered "portable" in anything but the most literal interpretation of that word. The Palm III, though, slipped in my pocket, and went everywhere with me. Its clamshell design gave it its own protective case for the screen, so I didn't need to invest in fancy third-party protective gear. The Palm III traveled with me pretty much around the world, and it never let me down.

    The Archos 5 Internet Tablet gets access to Android Market’s paid apps

    Posted on April 27, 2010 | No Comments
    The Archos 5 Internet Tablet just got a bit cooler. It finally has access to paid apps from the Android Market thanks to the latest firmware. This solves one of the biggest gripes we've heard about the small Android tablets. Previsously users could only download the free Android apps, not the preimum apps that cost something. This is actually a significant move in the Android tablet market, a trend we hope is followed by others.

    Google: Android Market now serving 30,000 apps

    Posted on March 16, 2010 | No Comments
    At the most recent Mobile World Congress, Google CEO Eric Schmidt revealed that the company's partners are now selling over 60,000 Android handsets on a daily basis. With that kind of growth rate, it's no wonder that the size of the Android Market is quickly increasing in its slipstream. While Google doesn't publicly show how many applications there are in Android Market, a Google representative this morning informed me that the application store now serves approximately 30,000 free and paid apps in total.

    Apple and Google are engaged in a fascinating battle of mobile OS’s. Among other things, they’re duking it out on patent infringement, developer relations and carrier support. Lines are being drawn, and everyone’s taking sides. That begs the question: what’s the difference between the App Store and Android Market for developers? And how does this affect [...]
