Beginning on December 9th T-Mobile Android device customers will receive an update to the Android Market application to allow for purchases to be charged to their T-Mobile account. This allows customers to quickly purchase paid applications without entering credit card information.

If you are an Android device customer here are some details of the change:
* The Market application update will be invisible to you. No steps are necessary to receive the update!
* To ensure that the update is received by all users T-Mobile and Google will stagger the update. You should expect to have the Market update by 12/30/2009.
* Once you receive the update you will be able to purchase paid applications using your credit card or your T-Mobile account.
* Reminder: Any applications uninstalled within 24 hours will NOT be charged to your T-Mobile account or credit card.


This update will definitely improve sales for the Android Marketplace and may help them close the gap with the App Store.
