I think the bigger point is being missed…cellmania has built a platform for others to create storefronts. These are not Yahoo! stores either. These allow customers to browse similar products. In addition, the billing, according to the flowchart on their page (http://www.cell....com/operators/) shows that apps can be purchased through an e-comm engine on the cellmania site but then charged to the phone’s bill.

This is brilliant! A glimpse of the future, I’d bet…

So it's an app store competitor? Not very appealing from the developer point of view. Regardless, I'd research any new marketplace with a site like This* digital security site.

Great – just what we need, app store fragmentation. The Apple App Store is successful because all the millions of iPhone buyers go to one place for their apps. It’s super simple for users, and developers don’t have to fragment their efforts, or risk choosing a “lame” app store.

Hmmmm. If there is only one source for Android apps how open is it? More choice = More open

Cellmania appears to be doing this for a long time, but do they have what it takes to compete with Google? This is direct slap in the face.

This is a very interesting post..and with 40 expected Android devices coming to the market by the end of next year.. Cellmania can position itself to take on the iPhone App shop! Finally, someone brave enough to take this step! Win for Google..Win for Carrier

So is this going to destroy the google marketplace?

Google should watch out.. Will this kill the openness in the marketplace? I do agree it would be nice to have more types of content on Android, but in the past we have learned carriers don’t always understand what the consumer wants.

[...] izoomer.init(”pmimg”,250,197); Cellmania, a company that builds and licenses the software that drives many mobile phone stores, has launched a new platform called the Android Content Storefront for Android phones that will allow carriers and manufacturers to install their own, customized app stores on Android phones. While Android phones already offer Google’s official app store, Cellmania CEO Ronjon Nag says that many carriers and manufacturers are looking for a way to offer their own stores, where they can feature localized content and sell media like music, ring tones, video, and graphics (none of which can currently be sold through Google’s store).[...] [...]

I guess this is Android’s answer to the iPhone’s app store? Cause It may take a while to do any damage at all to the iPhone. But you gotta give’em the marks for trying
