Good news! The Amazon Appstore for Android launched today. Bad news: even though I submitted it last Thursday, they haven’t yet approved the latest version 0.6 of Todo.txt Touch, so they’re selling an outdated one. Argh. Happily, my app is for sale there. Here’s where to get it: Todo.txt Touch at the Amazon Appstore for Android.

I would like to try it, when the new version is released. Also, I get a 404 on the Amazon Appstore link, on my Xoom. Love your work, thanks!

Welcome to the Apple AppStore-like world.

Hmm. “The Amazon Appstore is only available for customers located in the United States”.
Ok, I can *kind of* see the point of geo-restrictions for music and videos, and can more or less accept the context that leads to geo-restrictions for ebooks. But *apps*? (and not only specific apps, but the whole store!)

Ahh, the inherent problems of the curated App Store. I think with all the hype around Amazon’s Appstore launch, we all forgot that it won’t be the panacea people long for.
What it might do is give a push in Google’s direction to release timely updates that enhance the experience on the Android Market.
Personally, I can see both stores co-existing nicely, but I prefer the open Android Market with Gina’s updated app available right now.
