The biggest news at Google’s Honeycomb event last week was not the Honeycomb UI, but rather the updated Android Market. The Market is now web-based, making it utterly convenient to install applications across all of your Android devices, either from a PC or from any of the devices. Sophos Security (and AppleInsider, with undisguised glee) says that, in fact, it’s a little too convenient.
The idea is that with iOS devices you either need to be accessing iTunes from your device or from the iTunes application linked to a particular device to install apps. With the new Android Market, though, all you need is a web browser and to be logged into your Google account.
