Google announces the winners of Android Developer Challenge 2
The Android Developer Challenge is a Google initiative that throws a bunch of money toward the development community to encourage the creation of great Android apps. The prizes are no small potatoes, either. In the just-completed ADC2, $100,000 prizes went to the winners in each of ten designated categories, with $50,000 for second and $25,000 for third. There was also an additional $150,000, $50,000 and $25,000 for the top three overall apps. The big winner was SweetDreams, which forwards your calls to voicemail at night and disables inessential functions like Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to save battery while you're sleeping. Second and third went to a multiplayer drawing game called What the Doodle!? and a really useful-sounding phone tracking and backup app called WaveSecure. The top arcade game was Speed Forge 3D, where you pilot a heavily-armed mining vehicle.

Hi all,
As a giveback to Android users who supported and made tenCube's ADC win possible, we are offering a free lifetime account for Android WaveSecure users.
Just download WaveSecure from Android Market before 31st Jan 2010 to enjoy this free service for as long as you use that Android device.
It's our way of saying thank you. Do help to spread the word to other Android users so they can benefit from it, too!
