Google has released the software development kit for its newly launched Android mobile operating system.

Google is offering developers a slice of a $10 million (£4.83 million) prize fund, split between the 50 best software applications for Android.

The writers of the best 50 apps for Android will land grants of $25,000 each, followed by ten $100,000 and ten $275,000 grants. The rest, $5 million, will be handed out after the first Android-powered handsets have been developed.

Wow thats a lot of money to be won ! i think this a great way to get new mobile apps out their even start the new (web) mobile 2.o era.
