I admit, I'm an AppBrain fanboy.  Using a phone to dig and search through all the 68,000+ apps things in the Android Market is enough to drive anyone insane, so I don't do it unless I have to.  Today, using AppBrain just got better -- you can now install apps direct to your device, right from the AppBrain website.  Yes, just like the 'coming feature' from Google that Vic  Gundutra demoed at Google I/O, without the wait.  And it works on all modern versions of Android (1.5 and higher).  Hit the break for a quick how-to and a video of it in action.

Now comes the fun part.  Watch the video below, then hit the AppBrain site and start searching and installing applications the easy way!

This is one of the coolest Android apps :) Being able to install apps on your phone from the AppBrain website without having to actually install them on the phone is insanely cool :) Also, it shows all your installed app, shows updates.... WOW stuff I tell ya!
