Looks like US Army is coming to the party. It has launched the Army Software Marketplace prototype that will offer web-based and downloadable applications for soldiers’ training.
With that I hope soon Army will require developers like RIM does.
Currently the twelve apps available on the Marketplace, including Soldiers Blue Book, Army Values, Army Social Media Handbook and Developing a Performance Work Statement, are iOS based. But Android version is promised.
Lt. Gen. Susan Lawrence, the chief information officer/G-6 said “The Apps Marketplace is at the center of Army efforts to radically reduce the time to deliver applications across the force… “This prototype is a first step in establishing and exercising new submission and approval processes that will eventually enable Army members, organizations and third-party developers to release applications for Army-wide distribution.”
