Is”nt Android takes some fee for publishing Android Apps in the Marketplace ?

Mahesh

Google takes $25 registration fee to submit your app to Android Marketplace.

Tharun | Technostreak.com: That $25 an one time payment and your are free to submit more apps after that…

This looks really simple and easy enough. Since it is so easy to create such an Android app, later the Marketplace might be flooded with these apps! Haha…

Anyway, good tips there. Will check out the site! After my Android app is submitted, you will download it and install it on your Android device, will you not?
