The users of the three Android handsets of the carrier will have an option of picking up the applications from the roughly 12,000 in this Android Market and have the purchase charge show up on the bills of T-Mobile. Then this carrier will be paying up the app developers the share of their charge on the back end as said by Cole Brodman who is the CTO and also a senior vice president for the technology at Open Mobile Summit present in San Francisco this Wednesday.

Apple has also spearheaded the mobile application shopping with the App Store for its iPhone and iPod Touch that goes via the consumer's stored value or the credit-card account on the iTunes of Apple. With their App Store now boasting more than the 100,000 applications, the Android backers such as T-Mobile are actually trying to create one purchase experience which the consumers will be flocking as much as they need to Apple's platform.

Brodman has characterized the billing system of T-Mobile as a simple one click purchase method which does not need the user for giving the credit-card information or any sort of personal credentials.
