Your IT - Mobility

Remember that those who were successful in round one of the Android Developer Challenge are already enjoying a time and money advantage, so you probably don't want to compete directly with them unless you're sure you can do a hugely better job.

But don't give up - there will be another $5 million up for grabs in round two once the first Android handsets go on sale.

So will you be welcoming your new Android overlords, or wary of them? And what about Google's Android Market? If it's very successful - as seems likely to be), will it impact on way Apple runs its App Store? Share your thoughts in the forums!
