Google Android Developer Competition

Google has just released the Android SDK for mobile phone application prototyping. To encourage developers, they have created the Android Developer Competition. Starting in Jan 2008, Google will begin accepting Android Applications, with the top 50 receiving $25,000 cash prizes. A second stage will select the best of the bunch to go onto further development, with the ten receiving $275,000 and another ten winning $100,000. Anyone up for some mobile application development?
