There are so many feature-rich phones these days that it’s hard to decide which one to get. A tactic used by companies to sell is to encourage the development of application native to their device so that people would be encouraged to buy them. The perfect example would be, of course, Apple’s iPhone App Store.
Windows is planning on a similar store called the SkyMarket while Google Android is preparing for its own Android Market. Another one to join in the app frenzy is RIM with the BlackBerry Application Center. Crackberry’s got first news about it, along with a few pictures for you to enjoy. According to the report, the BlackBerry Application Center will carry apps designed for BlackBerry Storm’s 4.7 operating system and touch screen user interface. This means the first apps would be limited seeing as they could only be used on one device. Does this mean RIM is planning on making more full-faced touch screen devices? Maybe, but the BlackBerry Application Center might also carry apps for other BlackBerry models later on.
