[android-developers] Request to google and Releasing a paid app from a different country

Hi Guys,

I am planning to release my app (which i have been pllanning to do so
for quite a few time now, waiting for the expansion of google checkout
to happen).

I am from India and I am planning to release the application using my
friends UK Bank account.

Is this advisable? Are there any things that I should take care of?

Also is there any chance of google expanding the google checkout or in
introducing new payout options like paypal?

I have been waiting for the support for quite sometime and I am very
much depressed on the issue that google is still not expanding the
services, ive sent numerous mails to them asking for atleast the
estimated release date but in vain.

Its been nearly an yeaar since android is relmore than an year since
android phones have been released and still there is such slow
progress. iPhones allows developers from most of the countries to
publish their apps and customers from any country can buy the same, i
think they can even do it through itunes.

I think this is going to hurt the progress and development of android
big time. If apple can do it why not google?

I have been expecting some response from google atleast on the
estimated date, so that we can plan accordingly.

To Google -

Please make all applications available for customers in all countries

Allow developers from all countries to publish their applications or
introduce new payment options.

Give estimated dates on google checkout expansions, or atleast which
countries are in the pipeline.

Enable better copy protection of applications, and ability to install
applications in the memery card.

Bring faster updates to the OS(atleast for those devices running on
stock android, even though this may not be googles responsibility I
expect them to take up some steps for the same.

Apart from all these android is rock on, and once these are also
followed i hope that any competition can be dethrowned pretty fast.

Regards,
R.Karthik
