App Store Will Launch Thursday Night

As read on engadget mobile: Steve Jobs Says the App Store will launch Thursday night for the iPhone and iPod touch. Steve goes on to tell the USA Today that 500 plus apps will be available at the launch and about 25% will be free. Nearly (90%) all of the apps on the app store will be for sale for under ten bucks. Steve seems to think this is going to be the “biggest launch” of his career. IBM’s software was credited for making the PC take off. Jobs thinks the app store is going to separate iPhone from all the other smart phones.

Separating the men from the boys by the size of their toys, I always say. I think the app store and the iPhone 2.0 update are the real appealing things about the iphone and touch. The world could live without the 3g or GPS, but no one wants to live without the 3rd party apps.
