I agree the Amazon app store has issues, but I’m not sure it’s as bad as you are making it out to be… If I may:
“It’s slow” – That’s subjective and variable. I have it installed on 3 devices: Plenty fast on my evo, decent on my rooted nook, and abhorrent on my hero. I think that applies to pretty much ANY application. Just to be sure, i just scrolled through 200+ apps on my evo, in less than 20 seconds, just as fast as my finger would flick. You may want to look at your settings.
“Queue and Install” – installing the app of the day took: 1 click to buy, 1 click to the same button to confirm (preventing accidental purchase) and another to ‘install’ after it downloaded (same install/cancel option ANY apk is going to give you, and that the market did originally). Not exactly onerous… I do agree multi-installs/updates would be nice, but considering they haven’t been out a year, I’ll give them a break there.
“It has to be running” – True, but I have yet to see a performance or battery hit for doing so. I’ve seen some people post about an error with it logging in (and therefore purchased apps), and for those people/incidents I can see a valid issue. It seems to be about a frequent as licensing issues from the market, that is to say, rare, but not unheard of.
“Continuous notification” – The notification comes once a day, when there is an uninstalled update to an installed program, and anytime you add another application. Annoying? Sure, but if nothing else, it reminds you to check for the app of the day. There is an app that people are paying $1 for that does the same thing…once you clear it, it’s fine until tomorrow (assuming the other two triggers aren’t hit)
“Slow to update” – There are 4 of today’s 10c apps that were previously apps of the day (free), all four are on the same version on Amazon and on the market. It’s been that way all week… The AirSync on Amazon is actually NEWER than the one in the market. There may be a slight ‘echo’ on getting updates, but I’ve found it to be about a week or so (recently, originally, MUCH longer).
“The Devs” – Now this argument has merit. It’s been posted on several occasions Amazon basically strong-arms the developers for their own benefit for the app of the day program. But then you undercut your own standing by saying you will continue to support them by downloading their apps? Which is it, that Amazon is treating devs poorly and you refuse to support that, or that you will continue to download the free app (effectively endorsing said treatment).

I realize a comments section on a website is NOT the place to put in depth conversation, but I thought to reply just because it seems you just wanted to get rid of Amazon app store. I think it’s fine to do that, and may do so myself (if thumb keyboard and quickoffice come up during the sale). But lets wrap it in fact based decisions, not flawed logic and anecdotes. cheers

Sometimes a video is just the best way to explain exactly what you can be looking forward to when purchasing a new game. That is exactly the case with Hero Princess, a fast-paced game in which you continually fight off a rather large collection of potential intruders in attempts to keep the castle safe. There are tons and tons of extra powers, and abilities that can be unlocked and used, and the graphics are nothing short of spectacular.

Hero Princess is only available in the Amazon Market currently, so that means most AT&T users, and International users are left out on this one, but if you have the ability to purchase this game, it is 99 cents well spent.

Been here before, haven’t we? Despite unsourced, unfounded and generally un-everything rumors, people keep insisting that the Motorola Droid Bionic has been killed off. Not so, a Motorola spokeswoman told Dow Jones Newswires’ Roger Cheng.

It’s been more than three months since the Droid Bionic was announced at CES (see our hands-on) and since then has been tucked neatly out of sight. But the unnamed Motorola official tells Cheng “Based on compelling feedback since the show, we are incorporating several enhancements to make this an even better consumer experience.” A second-quarter launch is still possible (we’ve heard as much), but a push to the third-quarter apparently is possible, too. That either means stuff ain’t ready, ain’t good enough, or they’re still figuring out what the heck to do.

But canceled, it is not. At least not yet. WSJ via Android Central Forums
