Lets write applications for Android!
-Okay, sure

That's gonna be $25 for a developer account
-Okay, that's not terrible

Here's the SDK and appropriate documentation
-Very nice, thank you

Here's Eclipse.  If you don't like this IDE feel free to code by hand
-.............

Also, its a bastardized version of JAVA
-.............

Can I have my $25 back?
-No

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Post the equivalent for the iPhone.

Only problem with iPhone is the draconian app store.  APIs are sweet.  No upfront cost.

I can't help but notice that the $25 fee is for distributing your completed apps on the Market, and that the SDK was freely downloadable up front.
I also notice that if you're too much of a pussy to ``code by hand'', as you put it, you need merely /usr/bin/google android $IDE_OF_CHOICE.

Think of the $25 fee as a `stupid tax'. In fact, maybe you should send $25 to me as well, just to be sure.
