Google Android’s apps crawling up on downloads

That doesn’t mean  it has failed, no way, the applications that have been downloaded in a space of one week have almost touched three million.

With the number of applications almost trebled from fifty at the launch it appears that G1 users are more keen at taking in games and applications related to the lifestyle and media. Overall the report puts the G1 at an ok position and perhaps the reason why Google hasn’t really made it big with the apps is primarily due to negligence and the obvious presence of the iPhone.

I guess if Android gets integrated into a larger number of mobile devices it may just get past the iPhone. But then it will have to be waited for before more manufacturers think about Googling their devices.
