What you learn from this is that iPhone apps has a ton of crap. I sincerely doubt all 1,600 apps by that one company have any quality

- physcab 17y agoWhat you also learn is that this was a brilliant move by Apple. Outsource the development, reap the benefits. This was already known, but I would be interested to see how this these numbers stack up against Apple's internally developed applications (cost to produce, and revenue generated).
- igorgue 17y agoNot a brilliant move by Apple, remember that it was the community that asked for this, Apple didn't make a move, the community moved Apple to this direction, Apple wanted people to write webapps instead of using a SDK.
- h3yl9r 17y agoIn my opinion Apple had an App Store planned out from the very beginning, and just hadn't finished the public APIs and SDK.
- pieter 17y agoThey have just a few apps (lilke iMapsPro) but sell different versions for different regions. I guess that's just a limitation on the App store, as they can't sell different regions within their app at the current price point ($0.99). It looks like a clever idea. This way you can still use maps on vacation, without getting the roaming charges. It seems to be just a maps wrapper around Open Streetmaps.
