The Android Market can be accessed through an online browser and the apps will be downloaded to your web devices. More details on the new Online Android market coming up soon.
Up until now, Android users could only download and install apps from the Android Market app on their phone. The new Android Market web store features a carousel that shows a variety of popular and featured applications.
