Apple App Store (dubbed the last greatest capitalism experiment) has been a terrific success. More than 500m applications, from games to interactive travel guides, have been downloaded.
Without surprise more companies are roolling out their App Store:
- Ericsson App Store. (Ericsson without Sony)
By August its customers will be able to personalize their phones with a range of downloadable utilities, tools, and games over multiple platforms
- Vodafone App Store. Just announced.
- Orange Application Store which is already available for selected handsets in France, although the official release will happen before the year is over in France first, followed by the UK.
- Plaza Retail Store (Qualcomm)
- Java Store (Oracle)
- Ovi Store (Nokia-O2-Orange)
- Windows Marketplace (Microsoft)
- App World (RIM's BlackBerry)
At a glance: users from 152 countries around the world. Support for more than 75 Nokia devices. Integrated mobile billing with 27 operators globally. Localized in 5 different languages. Opened two weeks ago
Only a few of shops will thrive. Without doubt Java Store will be one of these. You need more than a closed platform (you knew that Ericsson phone
have power sockets incompatibles with their own previous models?) and a copy and paste in order to be successful.
