I find it pretty cool that you left your day job and do something that you really enjoy. (Not saying that a day job can't be something enjoyable thought). And yeah, it sure look impressive at first that you made 3x the income, however, it seems that you've went a little all-in with the stuff you already had.
Looking forward to see the next month with the android app! Question for you: Why android and not iphone?
- kreci 16y agoiPhone needs Mac for development (and of course iPhone). Android does not. Moreover I believe that on long term Android may be more profitable.
- TheSOB88 16y agoWhy do you think that Android would be more profitable? It seems to me that Google is terrible at marketing; the only people I've seen interested in Droid have been geeks like us.

- mhd 16y agoConsidering the recent success of the iPad and iPhone 4, that might not happen at all or be in the far future. On the other hand, the iPhone market might be more saturated for the kind of applications you want to make. Still, once you got the idea, the graphics and the general structure, porting apps either way isn't that hard, even if you have to rewrite the code, so investing in a used Mac Mini + iPod Touch might be worth it in the end.
