What? 1.5 Billion already



Yes readers, you heard right, remember 3 months ago when Apple announced that they have near 1 Billion apps downloaded from the app store? Well, now they're at it again. In 3 months another .5 Bilion apps have been download and Apple announced it today. Can we expect to see another give away and can that same kid win twice? In one year 65,000 Apps from 100,000 iPhone App Developers have been made. Tough for other company to catch up.. Jobs had this to say.

“The App Store is like nothing the industry has ever seen before in both scale and quality,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. “With 1.5 billion apps downloaded, it is going to be very hard for others to catch up."
