Amazon Appstore lets you test drive applications before purchase

Amazon Appstore is a ‘name’ which has caused some problems in Cupertino with allegations claiming that it is a copy of the Apple’s marketplace dubbing. Minus the name, the Amazon App Store doesn’t copy much from the Apple App Store, instead; it can teach the Apple marketplace a thing or two about marketing. Amazon Appstore interestingly lets users ‘test drive’ the applications before they are sure about purchasing a particular application. For this, Amazon uses a virtual machine which runs a full-fledged version of Android. This is indeed a great feature which gives the application seekers a great sense of satisfaction as they can purchase applications more assuredly. The only restriction-if at all it can be called one, is that the ‘test drive’ is only available in the US.
