70% Of iPhone Apps To Be Available For Free
Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster uncovered a real thriller here. According to The Unofficial Apple Weblog, he surveyed application developers just after Steve Jobs' keynote on Monday. Just over 70% of respondents said they'd be offering iPhone and iPod Touch applications for free. What's more, apps that do require payments will likely cost under $3. This is incredible news. People who were worried about seeing applications cost $10 or more appear to have nothing to worry about. On top of this, many of the developers said that they will be building enterprise-level applications. What those apps will be weren't revealed by Munster's survey, but the news bodes well for the iPhone's future as an enterprise-class device. « Sony To Blow Other Cameraphones Out Of The Water | Main | Tomorrow's CIO: Process Before Technology » |
