500,000,000 x 0.13 = 65,000,000 beers!

But where are you supposed to go to get reviews before you shell out on crappy applications. iPhoneKungFu is about the best site I've seen but its only just scratching the surface compared with the number fo apps available...

I don't like wasting money, even if it is 59p, they all add up.

Usually I'm playing fieldrunners on the bus home after work or going to work. But now I've found myself playing it at home.

Its fun! :)

At this pace, the target of 25K apps, 30M iphones in use and 1B app download that i predicted by July is fast approaching and might even be achieved by April end. On an average 1 in 15 iPhone users is "purchasing" (and not just downloading free) an app daily.
