If you are rooted you can use an app called AdFree. It basically edits the hosts files do the ads are blocked.

Yes, the way to remove ads is to buy the apps. If you're so ungrateful to the developers who are releasing their apps for free, then you shouldn't download them.
This is the reason why the Android Market will never match the App Store. If no one can make money from their apps, no one will release apps.

Come on, those ads don't consume that much data...And considering all the apps that are free, if you like something, buy the donate version or at least click on some ads in the app...
ignore me i misread.

Speaks someone who respects the hard work by many developers in creating apps I use on a daily basis.

Obviously you missed the point. If a user removes the ads from an ad-supported app, then the developer isn't making money.

There's plenty of websites where you can buy Android apps from. Thankfully, unlike iOS, you can install apps from any number of sources.

No, don't worry this is not another "I don't see the paid market applications" thread.
I am wondering, now that we have some really excellent and 100% usable builds, and furthermore, I am committed to the Android platform in general - I am looking to purchase some applications.
My question is - how are paid applications linked to you? Say I buy a weather widget, and I choose to switch to another build, or say another phone. How does google link me to that purchase? Will I be able to redownload for free just because I'm signed into my Google account?
Greatly appreciate any tips on how this works

they are linked in to the "cloud" just like anything else involved with your google account. it will install if you switch to another build(, unless,
say you buy a live wallpaper in an eclair build it wouldnt download in donut. it would download again when you use an eclair build again though.

To be clear:
It's linked to your google account.
If you buy a new Android phone, you'll still have your apps.

I have been visiting your site and wow, it's wonderful, your post are really useful like the 20 Essential & Cool Android Apps, or 7 Tips To Be Safe When Downloading Apps From Android Market or 3 Top Most Expensive Apps In 3 Different Mobile App Stores. Very very interesting.
Congratulations..
Have you noticed the new PC android market?

Tell me your opinion!
I'm not sure I see the point, if all it does is use a qr code to direct your phone to the market to install the sofware.
It's a little bit stupid, for my opinion xD
agreed, useless....
from what I understand is you can set it t push automatically,I havny looked at it yet...

I think it's quite brilliant. If I'm in front of my computer anyways, I find it easier to use the web market to browse apps.

It uses over-the-air installing. Simply click Install on the web market, and it'll start installing on your phone automagically.
Can't see how another option is a bad thing
still no proper sorting option like best rated, latest, most downloaded etc...

I know the sdk was just released for developers but motorola has had it for awhile. I wonder why they did not release a single app? I say a very lazy move on motorola's end. Oh and by the way I love this tablet I am addicted to it.
I think because its a Google Experience device it doesn't come with any extra apps, just the stock ones.

Ya I didn't expect for them to have a ui on top of honeycomb but a single app would of been cool.
Maybe I am just being picky.

Lazy means..... being the first honeycomb tablet to market?... its a google experience... have u seen motoblur...... you do not want that on your phone....
What app did you program? you lazy?
Wait, haven't people always been complaining that Motorola keeps putting software on their devices?
I dunno about you, but I prefer when Motorola doesn't do anything to their ROMs. It delays updates, and its never good software anyways.
i agree, moto can keep their hands off the software portion.
I'm glad they left it alone. No bloatware is fine by me!
on wp7 HTC made some nice apps for their phones. You don't have to use them but they are good apps. I am not talking about a ui like blur or sense.

No thanks to any bundled apps from the manufacturer, as all of that is stored in read-only system memory. If I want a weather widget, I'll write it myself or get one from the Market.
you're damned if you do, and damned if you don't
Bundled Apps
I would be fine with bundled applications, as long as I have the option to uninstall the apps I don't want.
Just glad they didn't force Motoblur on it.

This. Some of the manufacturer apps are nice but most of them are waste of space.
anyways, count me in to the people that are happy there is no motoblur on our xooms.

What do you mean by that? Something like Amazon, or maybe something like AppBrain, AppAware, Android PIT, etc.?

AFAIK the amazon market is not avaliable outside the US
At least, it's not avaliable in Germany
For me it´s Appbrain.
In the last couple of days appbrain is mostly down(the site and the sync in android).
They all have there pro's and cons,
Android market is good, only mainly ... install direct etc but no backups.
App brain can be a bit clunky .. but . does back up apps... again it installs from the Android market ..
The others?... not so good.
