If you’re looking to get a new Android device on the nation’s largest wireless carrier — and don’t mind buying online — listen up. Amazon Wireless and the Amazon Appstore are teaming up to offer Android handset purchasers a little added incentive. Now through Sunday, May 1st, customers that purchase any Verizon Wireless Android device will receive a $25 credit to the Amazon Appstore. You heard that right. Buy yourself a ThunderBolt, DROID 2, DROID X, DROID Pro, Fascinate, or any other Android set to cash in on this promotion. “The combination of Amazon Wireless and Amazon Appstore is unique in the industry because it provides customers with a one-stop Android shopping experience,” writes the company. “Amazon is excited to start offering customers promotions that give them a bonus once they get their phone.” No word on if the DROID Charge, which will be available on April 28th, will be eligible for this promotion.

    A lot of people hated on the whole Amazon appstore, but I love getting a free app every day. I’ve probably gotten $50 of free apps that I would have never paid for.

    That Amazon AppStore is a scam!! Took over my Android Market installations after I installed it for the free version of Angry Birds RIO a few weeks ago. All of my official Android Market Apps disappeared from “My Apps” except for two, Maps and Gmail. Took over my Android Market installation of Angry Birds Seasons and would not let me update ‘Seasons’ to latest Easter release. Had to uninstall Amazon AppStore App and, then, uninstall RIO and Seasons because they wouldn’t open if Amazon AppStore App was not present and “signed-in”. No wonder I wasn’t getting the Angry Birds Season “Update Availabl” message. If you have Amazon AppStore App installed check your Android Market “My Apps” list.

    I’m rooting this thing just to remove EVERYTHING AMAZON!

        It’s not Android’s fault. No wonder the Amazon AppStore App can not be downloaded from Google’s Android Market.
