TMG develops news app for Google Android
The new application will be available from the Android Marketplace.


Amidst the US availability of the first Google Android-based handset and its imminent arrival on a T-Mobile handset on these shores, the publishers of the Telegraph newspaper have unveiled they've been hiding an application up their sleeve.
The Telegraph Media Group (TMG) which reckons it is the first UK publisher to launch an application for Android is offering free software that people can download from the Android Marketplace in order to get their mobile fix of the newspaper's website.
"We're delighted to be the only UK provider in the Android Marketplace at launch," said Paul Cheesbrough, TMG's chief information officer (CIO). "Mobile access to our content and products is a growing part of our offering, and Android provides us with a rich and innovative platform to reach our customers."
