Optus Android Users Can Now Access Paid Apps

 title=It’s been a LONG time coming, but Optus has just announced via its Twitter feed that their Android customers can now access all the paid apps on the Android Marketplace.

The timing could not have come at a better time – there’s a MotoBLUR launch happening next Tuesday – which is Motorola’s Android software UI, and I’ve been receiving a lot of tips that Optus is going to be the carrier behind the new Moto handsets. So with some shiny new Android devices about to hit stores, it makes sense for the network to allow paid applications for the platform.
