MobileApplications

The iPhone App store has exploded. As of early 2010, the iTunes App store has grown to well over 100,000 apps. Google has unveiled its Android platform with an app store of its own. Dozens of smartphone manufacturers have announced Android-powered devices, RIM has launched App World, Palm has its Palm Store, Nokia launched Ovi (its online store) and Microsoft has unveiled Windows Marketplace. Ten years after the dotcom boom, we are in a similar place with mobile apps. If your company doesn't have a mobile application, you are behind the curve.

The iPhone clearly leads the mobile marketplace. Consider the following staggering statistics:
Total Apple App Store downloads: 2,300,000,000+
Estimated consumer spending on iPhone apps in 2009: $1,500,000,000
Every 16 months users update their mobile phone
