Google have announced a big step forward in helping companies and individuals to protect the software that they develop for Android devices from being illegally copied.

In a recent blog post on the Android Developers Blog, Android developer Eric Chu annouced the new Licensing Service For Android Applications.

In the meantime, there is still no announcement of when an OS upgrade will be available for my Dell Streak!
