you will be awarded $25,000 USD. Your application has demonstrated
originality, indispensability, intuitiveness, and good use of the
Android platform - which are all attributes that our judges looked for
while evaluating submissions to the challenge.

We'd like to bring a few items to your attention:

entries this coming Monday, 5/12. In particular, this would include
your name, a screenshot, and a short description about your

application is attached to this email.

without your prior consent. If you are interested in having your

further opportunities, please use the following form to give us your

Dear participant,

During the past few weeks, 100+ judges around the world reviewed over 1,700 applications. They were extremely impressed with the diversity and the large number of high quality entries submitted. It is clear that the number of great applications far exceeds the 50 top scoring applications that will move on to the final round of the Android Developer Challenge.

We regret to inform you that your entry was not among the top 50 submissions. However, we'd like to bring a couple of interesting opportunities to your attention:

1. Due to the high quality of the submissions many of the judges who are also members of the Open Handset Alliance have showed interest in contacting some of the participants regarding their applications to explore further opportunities.

2. In the near future, we'll be creating an Android Developer Challenge Gallery where you can showcase your application. We'll be providing more details shortly on how you can participate in this gallery.

If you're interested in either one of these opportunities, please fill out the following form:

https://spreadsheets.google.com/a/googl ... m?key=XXXX

As we've announced earlier, we'll be running a second Android Developer Challenge later this year. This will give you another opportunity to showcase your application and compete for top prizes. We'll be announcing the details of the second Android Developer Challenge in the near future.

If you happen to be in San Francisco, CA on May 28-29, we hope that you'll join us at Google I/O, Google's largest developer event, where we will be holding many technical sessions on Android and other relevant technologies. The team will be present there and is looking forward to meeting you.

Thank you again for participating in the challenge.
