Per the chart above, Google Android Market has the largest share of free applications available; 60%,
representing an increase of 3% since May 2010 when it was 57%. The share of free applications is smallest
on Windows Marketplace for Mobile (22%), followed by the Apple App Store for iPad (26%) and BlackBerry
App World (26%).

The large share of free applications in Google Android Market may be influenced by the fact that developers
from only 9 countries are currently able to distribute paid applications in Google Android Market, and by
the fact that users from only 14 countries are able to download paid applications (out of the 46 countries
where Google Android Market is currently available). Additionally, users need to register for a Google
Checkout account in order to download paid applications in Google Android Market (except for the
locations where operator billing is available).

Do you need a 4” Super AMOLED when 3.5” would’ve been just fine – and easier to handle?" Read more here:

"Symbian's future looks uncertain, because the price decrease has its limits and the competition in the low price range will heat up in 2011 when MediaTek will offer an inexpensive chipset for smartphones, especially the models build on Android. This will allow selling devices at the retail price of around $100-120. Android market will get a new push with Symbian on the defensive. Nokia will have to lower the prices again, but the bottom prices could be reached by then. In 2010-2011 nothing will change the situation around Symbian. The market is ever changing and Symbian may have a break only in 2012 if the right decisions are taken today. So far we have not seen any move in the right direction" Read more here:
