Good news for all Android developers and users out there is that Google has posted a video preview of the new Android Marketplace which shall be available in the upcoming Firmware 1.6 of Android. By the looks of it, it looks stunningly organized, high user-friendly and eye-catchy, close enough to the beauty of the App Store in the iPhone.


The biggest change in this new version of the Android Marketplace will be a clean new interface, along with the option to view screenshots of apps or games before downloading or trying them.
Also four new sub-categories for applications have been added namely: sports, health, themes, and comics. Developers can now choose these sub-categories for both new and existing applications via the publisher website.

From what I have observed about the Android Marketplace so far is that it may not be the best thing around, but it is quite comparable to the App Store in iPhone in terms of having good-quality apps. What makes it even better is that most apps are free and pretty much useful too.
We shall be seeing more of it in Android 1.6 Donut.
