Android Developers angry at Google

Google has apparently raised the ire of the Android mobile phone operating system developer community after restricting access to the latest version of the software development kit (SDK) to a handful of companies, which ironically, was meant for the open platform.

The top 50 companies from its recent developer competition have been given access though, and I suppose the brainiacs behind Google have a very good motive for this despite shutting plenty of other people out at the moment.
