What engine and why?

I understand it's hard to get Google Apps (gmail, maps, youtube, music etc) on the OUYA because Google have too many rules about how you should also have the Play Store, and you don't want that because the OUYA needs to make money off its own store. But since the OUYA is pretty popular, I'd figure you guys would have some leverage to negotiate some kind of partnership, where you could keep your own store, and still have the Google Apps. Is there anyway you guys could get this working? Is a partnership with Google something you would like to do? Or is it completely off the table?

A question for Kellee, could you please go in more detail about how exactly the Sandbox works, and how do apps get promoted to the OUYA Store? The impression that I first had, was that the Sandbox is kind of a waiting line to get the app reviewed by the OUYA team, and once an app is reviewed and approved, it gets to the store. And you use crowdsourced metrics (user engagement) with the game, to prioritize which games get reviewed by the OUYA team first. Is that correct? Or do the apps don't need to get approved from OUYA, at all, to get from Sandbox to Store?
