Ships Of Elite Android Live Wallpaper

Hi all - I have written my first application for the Android mobile operating system which is a Live Wallpaper which simulates the intro sequence of Elite. It's completely free and contains no Ads or any such.
If there is enough interest in the wallpaper I would be willing to write a more interesting version.
Details can be found on my website (trojanfoe dot com) or you can simply search for "Ships Of Elite" within the Android Market.
Cheers,
Andy

Cracking first post!
None of the phones in my household are Android based though (alas)...

Welcome aboard Andy!
I, too, am stuck in the dark ages with phones. Mine makes calls and text messages and ..er.. well that's about it.
Sounds intriguing though!
Cheers,
Drew.

Hi,
I have the 'Ships of Elite' live wall paper for my SE X10i and it runs like a dream, reminded me of days of old sitting in front of my speccy 48k till mommy tells me to GET SOME SLEEP!, Now having discovered Oolite thanks to your wallpaper! I can play again. (I only searched for elite again about an hour ago after gazing at your wall paper while watching Wonders of our Solar System)
Good work on the wall paper and yes I would like a bit more and I hope to god they do an android version of Oolite, that would be an app I would pay for!
Thanks,
Adrian..............

Welcome Trojanfoe, welcome EliteArmadillo.
You may notice that in the first case your welcome is about half a year late.
Anyway, welcome EliteArmadillo! Glad that you found your favourite game, and our little community as well.
(Nice user name, too.)

Hmm. I want this for my ANdroid tablet, but it doesn't support downloading from Android Market.
Anyone know anywhere I can download the .APK file from?

Heh, if you'd gone to trojanfoe's website as per the first post, you would have stumbled on the announcement, complete with this .apk link:

Nah, that's not a lack of interweb skillz. On the contrary, that's a hip new skill: Why do something yourself, if you can get to use the
resource Kaks?
