Anecdotally I've noticed that people with iOS devices are more likely to purchase apps, while people on Android devices tend to look for free apps. I suggested that my developer friend write for iOS first, and the other markets as he had time. What do you think: Will the iOS marketplace remain the #1 market for developers for the foreseeable future?</p>
