Windows Store, which will allow Windows 8 users access to the new WinRT or Modern UI applications, has so far rounded 2,000 applications. By Jesper Stein Sandal Wednesday 26 September 2012 - 10:28
Can Microsoft manage to get a critical mass of applications in the Windows Store before the launch of Windows 8? The question arises i store as The Next Web, after which currently just over 2,000 applications in the store.
Windows 8 will also be able to run all existing Windows applications that can run on Windows 7, but especially tablet users will have greater benefit from the new applications that are developed for WinRT or Modern UI, so it was previously known as Metro. And buy a Windows Surface tablet in WinRT version, that is the one to compete with the iPad and Android tablets, only the new WinRT apps that work.
Microsoft has since developer conference Build in September last year trying to get developers i store to develop applications for the Windows Store, and 11 September has Microsoft that all developers i store could submit their applications.
There will be applications that are not available in all countries, as developers can choose to focus on selected markets, so the number of immigration applications in the Danish part of the Windows Store will be lower.

I think that there has been little "mine is bigger than yours" over the competition to have the most possible applications for the same platform. Both for IOS and Android, there are more applications than anyone ever have time to try, but it's a few hundred actually being used by more than a handful of users.
Obviously I can not judge the quality of the mentioned applications in 2000, but only by number, one can not conclude anything. i store Microsoft i store has enough money to pay the developers of the most popular applications for Android and IOS to make WinRT version. So it's probably not many people who will see to miss their favorite i store application when switching to WinRT.
In practice there will be some who will miss their most used app as development departments do not always i store have resources to support a new platform. Regardless of microsoft can pay them for it.
Not, I totally agree with you, there is too much focus on quantity, but it's probably i store because the number of applications i store is an indicator i store of popularity in the eyes of many and it is most likely a factor in their choice of mobile.
For me it is important that the applications I use. It is very few. DSB route plan is Google Maps Something to measure your heart rate by Endomondo Mail application two exchange etc Good music Facebook
So I might not be the most demanding user, but I'm with Windows 8 forward to seeing the integration like. with Office 365 or other Microsoft products can get me to use multiple applications. In any case, it's i store about quality because it takes a lot before I want to change my habits. It must make sense, and there must be a gain by it - and not just because I very occasionally can start an application and say "look what my phone can."
It sounds like a very sensible argument, i store but it ignores the fact that people have many different interests. For me, some of the crucial programs on my iPhone weather, one wikipedia reader, Journey Planner and an RSS reader. For most of them, there are several options to choose from.
It seems silly to put it up as a simple opposition between quantity and quality when it realiternes world is much more complicated and nuanced. Some of the key questions are: How many well-known programs / brands are there? (Facebook, etc.) How many programs are targeted to your interests? How many programs are targeted your location? (Itinerary and Byvejret, for example.) In the above categories, the applications are generally of high quality?
It is of course subjectively which platform is best, but a certain width may then be necessary - or luck ... With only 2000 applications, all in all, I doubt that there are very many good programs for foreign visitors.
Pocket Informant is a calendar application that also supports Getting Things Done-tasks, notes etc.. It has gone over 12 years ago, and has always run on Windows Mobile. Today it runs on iOS (iPhone, iPad) and Android, two platforms which are still being developed. Versions for Windows Mobile and Blackberry seems on the contrary to be 'laid dead', no further development seems certainly to take place. In contrast, we publicly gone out with that one is in the process of developing a version for OS X, just as you have made a synchronization service, i store PI Online as through i store third-party product gsyncit also synchronize i store with Outlook for Windows (Outlook for Mac supports particular . no plugins, and
