"25% will be free and 90% (of those for sale) will cost $9.99 or less."

let me break it down

25% will be free

and

90% (of those for sale) will cost $9.99 or less
__________________________________________

25% X 500 apps = 125 apps FREE!!!!!

500 - 125 = 375 apps remain

90% X 375 = 337.5 apps < or = to $9.99

remainder of 37.5 app's price = (insert variable)

500 apps on the store.

125 of them are FREE!

338 of them will cost $9.99 or less.

37 of them will cost over $9.99.


///NOW QUIT YOUR MOANING///

HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE FROM EUROPE YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO COMPLAIN CAUSE IF AN APP ON THE US STORE COSTS $9.99 IT'S LIKELY TO COST €9.99 THERE (HERE), WHICH WORKS OUT AT $15.68

The app store will immediately make this into more than a phone; it's going to be a mobile computer. Finally I and many others will be able to leave our laptops behind on short trips and such, and still remain perfectly productive. Some of the apps will be so revolutionary in what they will allow us to do that I think within 5 years from now, people will wonder how they lived without all these things in their pockets!

I'm currently working on an iPhone App of my own, but I wouldn't have the foggiest about making an app for any other phone on the market—not even the fabled 'instinct'. The App store is a more important feature than 'copy and paste,' than 3G, than GPS, than a touch screen, etc.

The fact that people and companies will be able to publish iPhone apps on a dime will make this thing revolutionary!]]>Jul 10th 2008 2:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/jobs-app-store-launching-with-500-iphone-applications-25-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/jobs-app-store-launching-with-500-iphone-applications-25-free/Jul 10th 2008 2:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/jobs-app-store-launching-with-500-iphone-applications-25-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/jobs-app-store-launching-with-500-iphone-applications-25-free/Jul 10th 2008 2:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/jobs-app-store-launching-with-500-iphone-applications-25-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/jobs-app-store-launching-with-500-iphone-applications-25-free/
