Google hat jetzt eine wirklich interessante Aktion für Entwickler gestartet. So verschenkt man aktuell Google Nexus One und Motorola Droid Smartphones an Entwickler. Das berichtet Techcrunch in einem aktuellen Beitrag.

Es gibt zwar Bedingungen aber diese sind durchaus machbar. Man muss eine App im Android Market haben, die mindesten 5000 mal heruntergeladen wurde und eine Bewertung von über 3,5 Sternen hat.

Das schreibt Google dazu:

Due to your contribution to the success of Android Market, we would
like to present you with a brand new Android device as part of our
developer device seeding program. You are receiving this message
because you’re one of the top developers in Android Market with one or
more of your applications having a 3.5 star or higher rating and more
than 5,000 unique downloads.

In order to receive this device, you must click through to this site,
read the terms and conditions of the offer and fill out the
registration form to give us your current mailing address so that we
can ship your device.

You will receive either a Verizon Droid by Motorola or a Nexus One.
Developers with mailing addresses in the US will receive either a
Droid or Nexus one, based on random distribution. Developers from
Canada, EU, and the EEA states (Norway, Lichtenstein), Switzerland,
Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Singapore will receive a Nexus One. Developers
with mailing addresses in countries not listed above will not receive
a phone since these phones are not certified to be used in other
countries.

We hope that you will enjoy your new device and continue to build more
insanely popular apps for Android!”

Eine nette Aktion. Könnte Apple nicht so etwas auch mal für Blogger machen !?!?
