Android market place is growing at a rapid pace and just passed 20,000  apps at the marketplace.  Phonearena.com reports that 62% of the apps are free and the other 38% are pay for apps.  Mobile Crunch estimates that the app number for Android will hit 50,00 by second quarter.  The growth at this time is largely attributed to all the new Andriod devices out on the market from Sprint as well as Verizon to join tMobile in the offering of Andriod phones. Speaking of google phones, it was announced last week that Google shuffled out new G phones for everyone in the company.  More rumors keep coming out but HTC has built the new phone labled Nexus One as an unlocked version.
