10 Million App Store Downloads in the First Weekend

Author: Chris

14 Jul

Well the App Store is a genuine success. For every iPhone 3G phone, at least 10 applications have been downloaded. Some are free, some cost anywhere from under a dollar to the maximum $10. And there’s something for everyone inside.

The App Store started out with a little over 500 applications out of which about 125 were free of charge. Now they have more than 800 applications available with 200 of them being free of charge.

Although I said 1 iPhone for 10 applications or more, let’s not forget all iPod Touch owners out there which headed straight to the App Store after finishing their upgrade to firmware 2.0

The server is accessible from virtually anywhere and if sustained over 10 million downloads already, everything should be working according to plan. I guess those developers charging a dollar for their application are making a fortune too. Or more, a whole lot more.
