Android Ecosystem - 850,000 New Connections each day; 450,000 Apps in the Market

Andy Rubin has just laid some Android numbers out for everyone as only he can. The last time we heard numbers from Google was on Q4 2011 conference call where it was announced that 700,000 Android activations were happening daily and today, that number has pushed to 850,000.

For those of you keeping track, that's around a 250% growth in numbers. Apps have also been continually on the rise, back during Mobile World Congress last year Google announced there was 150,000 apps in Android Market and now that number sits at about 450,000 with around 1 billion downloads per month.

The point? The Google ecosystem is doing great. It's constantly growing and with over 800 Android devices launched to-date, it's not showing any signs of slowing down any time soon.

We’re just getting started at Mobile World Congress, so keep checking android.com/mwcand the +Android page on Google+ for updates.
