		<description>&lt;p&gt;All&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Gartner and Assoc estimated that only 25 to 30 percent of that 1B are paid apps.  No a bad business model, so along as Apple is getting 30% of the take. Remember nothing is free in life.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;dmg&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I think if it wasn&#039;t for the iPod and iTunes , this wouldn&#039;t be possible. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But really , Kudos to Apple for creating a ecosystem for a mobile phone where music and applications are easy to access.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;They allowed non-purchase or dl entries by filling out a form so did those count as &quot;downloads&quot;? The contest rules stated that if one of these entries was entered after 999,999,999 that they could be the winner... Seems that would skew the numbers, too, and negate the whole hype around the countdown.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;ime, that&#039;s because there are other countries who use $ but the value is different. I find it funny how Americans never have a +1 in front of their phone number as if the whole world needs to know the US international code by heart.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I love how foreign scams always say &quot;USD&quot;, like we ever refer to our money as having united states Dollars in my pocket.&lt;/p&gt;
