I've been ranting and raving about your product to colleagues of mine and just felt the need to say thank you for such a fine product. A quick question for anyone that knows; does Google Play for Android offer the ability to offer Redeemable codes for android apps we create like iTunes does? Couldnt find any reference.

There is, I believe, a feature request, you can vote/star it. If you are already using in-app billing, it is fairly easy to implement this yourself though. All you need is a database with Web access, so you can check if the coupon code is valid. You might want to implement some sort of restore functionality, so people can reuse the code if they switched devices. And/or set up an upper limit for coupon use, so that you can prevent people from sharing the coupon code.

But, you could just send the person the apk via email, and they could install it that way? I suspect you'd have to approach updates the same way.

Thinking maybe the thank you's are headed in the wrong direction - YOU ROCK! Comments @Geo3d: You're very welcome and must add that you have about the COOLEST avatar I've seen.
