Is Google Android's "Open" Market a Moral Hazard?

Recently, Google removed a few developers and their published apps from the app market. These apps were removed without warning by Google at the will of the developer, but most importantly, the costumer. Thousands of costumers who had purchased these apps, were disappointed to find that the app they spent $6 on to play their favorite games, vanished off of their mobile devices. Apparently, the emulator apps violated copyright of Sony. Google removed these apps without warning.

The real question is "What is the point of an open market if apps will be removed at the snap of Google's fingers?" "Will this lead to a requirement of a long waiting approval process that Apple developers flocked to Android to escape from?" There is one thing that no developer wants to see, and that is a limited market with a bunch of restrictions to the APKs and their content. Lets just hope this was a hiccup on Android's part, issued from the complaints on Sony's behalf.

Publicity and Persistence

Recently, on May 28th 2011, Wheaton Solutions and Xbox 360 Repair Guide were featured in the Muscatine Journal. Although it was a small town article, I look at it as an introduction to the potential behind Wheaton Solutions. With opportunities at my fingertips and a small taste of the business world, I'm excited to start on my next project.

Xbox 360 Repair Guide Ebook coming soon

I have recently decided to start on creating an Ebook for my Xbox 360 Repair Guide. Fixed costs are minimal to nothing at all and I will sell it for a feasible price based on quality and time spent on developing. This guide will lead you step by step to repairing your Xbox 360 after recieving the "Red Ring of Death." The "Red Ring of Death" is a fatal hardware failure per Microsoft that is indicated by 3 or 4 red LED lights. My predictions to the release date of my Ebook are not yet concluded.

If you are not interested in an Ebook please check out my app called "Xbox 360 Repair Guide" on the android market.

Please comment and provide criticism.

Xbox 360 Repair Guide Android App

Hello everyone,

I have recently posted my very first mobile application to the Android market. The release date was April 29th and since then I have had an immense amount of downloads. The name of the app is Xbox 360 Repair Guide. This app is your complete guide to repair your Xbox 360 after receiving the 3 red flashing lights.

I am currently looking for a new project. If anyone would like me to develop a mobile application, I would gladly help them for a very fair price.

Thank you,
Josh Wheaton
