It's ridiculous on one hand, but fair enough on the other hand since it's now the dominant O/S for hand-held devices.

Seems like a very future-proof idea as well.

Haha, when Apple released their shitty stores, everyone was like "omg amazing suck me Apple". Now when Android, a larger based handheld OS, releases a store designed around the OS, people are all "omg stupid shit what is this gay gay gay".

At least that's the judgement from YouTube.

i thought i was a really good idea.. i like to think of it as a de-brain washing store.. though how to get brain washed apple fan boys in the door is another problem entirely..

i get the same thing from the guys at work, when apple didn't do over the air updates, they were all "why the frak do we need that" and when i showed them how notifications worked on Android, they all said "meh thats kinda gay"..

now when apple steal the exact same features that android had years ago they think its the most incredible thing since IOS 3 or whatever... /facepalm

No way! The android mascot is awesome.

Yeah I know. I think it's pretty cool. Hopefully it'll attract more handsets over here faster. I love android, I don't think I could use another OS on my phone. It just does everything I want so well.

I've been in the Apple store down the coast, I don't know if it's an actual Apple store or just some store authorized to put their logo everywhere but it was clean, no bs gimmicks, just all their devices laid out on tables and stuck to the walls. Much the same as the computer section at Harvey Norman, Dick Smith, JB, etc.

This android store is like Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory. It's all just a bunch of gimmicks. Like he was making a big deal out of google earth, and gingerbread smells, and stuff that smells like grass. Do they have lickable wallpaper that tastes like snozberries too?

edit: They give you the option of everyone applauding you as you walk out of the Apple store too. Does the android store have green umpa loompas android aliens that dance and sing as you leave?
