Google unveiled on Wednesday evening February 1, version 3.0 of its Android operating system, designed for mobile phones and touch pads. Named "Honeycomb," this version is more specifically developed by the touch pads. In addition to various technical improvements and graphics, this version introduces mainly the possibility for developers to offer buyers called "in-app", ie directly from within an application.
The feature will be available until spring. Google also unveiled a Web version of its application store, hoping to leverage distribution channels - and thus sales of paid applications. Apple and Google are engaged in a permanent war to try to attract developers to their respective platforms.
Despite the strong growth of Android phones in recent months, paid applications will sell more easily on the iPhone and iPad on Android phones, especially because Apple provides a simplified payment system.
