Angry birds?

Why did they get people to sign up for the beta when they put it on Android Market anyway?

Downloaded for Milestone, not available for X10 mini pro (so either not for QVGA or not for 1.6.. hmm).

I hope they didn't just get all those people to sign-up for the beta to get a nice mailing list to sell on!

of course they did lol, i don't see any email been sent out do you?

Yes I have an e-mail from them:

Angry Birds Lite Beta is now available at the Android Market. Please note that this is the beta version of the application, which is still undergoing final testing before official release. Angry Birds Lite Beta is an unfinished version of the application and may not reflect the final gameplay.

Help us create the best game ever on Android! Please take a moment to give us feedback on how the game is performing on your personal device. Should you have any problems running Angry Birds Lite Beta, you can simply click the report a bug button in the main menu of the game.

If you have trouble starting the application, particularily on the HTC EVO 4G try starting the application again a few times and reboot your Phone.

Alternatively, you can access the feedback survey directly from this link: Angry Birds Lite Beta feedback survey

Where have you been? It was announced earlier this week that due to such high demand, they were going to release it onto the market instead of sending out hundreds of thousands of links to those who signed up for the Beta.

I believe the mailing list will also keep those who signed up for it, informed of the game's Retail release.

Mine just goes to the loading screen then right back to the home screen, anybody else?

ditto here. After rebooting, the app was completely gone from my app drawer, so I'm re-installing it from the market.

I can't recall - did the e-mail have special instructions for submitting feedback during the beta? There are lots of similar reports of crashing like this in the market feedback already.

He's exactly right. They also updated Twitter announcing an open beta due to the high demand.

Here's the QR code from AppBrain. Not that it's working for me ("The requested item could not be found"). Boo. I'm in the UK with a Samsung Galaxy S.
