I've been thinking around the subject of Android, and am pretty certain that the only tenable model for app distribution on this platform is with in-app advertising.
Of course, porting of a C++ app to Android is a complete pig, and I guess the option is either maybe via a port of SDL, or via Airplay.
The issue with Airplay is how to display in-app advertising; there is no way that I can see to invoke native code from Airplay!
Thinking around the subject, I was wondering if it were possible to install a native Android service that listens to a particular socket.
My thought is that Airplay could communicate with that service via the socket, to send request to display an ad in a native pop-up Window (the service handles the display of the ad, outside of the context of Airplay).
Anybody care to comment on this idea...? :-D
