Popular Apple App Store, it turned out that sales of mobile applications for smart phones is a hot business, but all the blind application of these shops are waiting to find the same success as the App Store?

Companies such as Nokia, Google, LG Electronics, Research In Motion and Microsoft are hoping. Since the Apple Store App came on the scene a year ago, these companies have each announced plans on their own initiative shops.

LG Electronics, the third-largest mobile phone Maker in the world, is the latest to announce its storage. On Tuesday, South Korean appliance Maker has announced it has launched its own application store for its phones. The market, which was initially available only in Asia, in 1400 applications. The company said that plans to increase this number to 2000, when it provides access to Europe and South America later this year.

LG has not yet set a date for the opening of his store in the United States, but there are many other companies, the launch applications are stored here. Research In Motion BlackBerry App start World store in March. The store only about 2000 applications. The company is currently developing a social network site to help encourage its use.

Other organs of the device, such as Palm, near the community of developers to create applications for their devices. But so far the new pre-Palm, which uses a sophisticated operating system developed specifically for the devices, called WebOS, only a small number of applications. Nevertheless, consumers are downloading them into the crowd.

Google Android Market Companies have also begun. Google professes, it has long-term advantages compared with the iPhone, because the developer community is more open. And while store was still young and relatively small today, it will likely have a large following among developers.

Earlier this year Microsoft announced its Windows Marketplace Mobile. And on Tuesday, the company said that the company will accept applications for its use in the store will open July 27. In addition, the company said that it will support Windows Mobile 6.0 and 6.1 at the end of 2009. In the Windows Marketplace for mobile devices is expected before the start of autumn.

Even Verizon Wireless said on the development of square shop for their smartphones. Currently, Verizon offers an application that uses its VCast service and the BREW platform for feature phones. But now, the wireless operator talking about launching an application store only for smartphones. A Verizon Wireless executive blog GigaOm recently stated in an interview that the company is developing in the market, which will be combined statements of all the other stores in four different communities of developers: Windows Mobile, Palm, Android and BlackBerry.

And there are other applications in the work shops. Nokia has launched its own store of applications using its platform Ovi. And Symbian Foundation is also working on the developer program to get more applications on the market for consumer smartphones in the works with the operating system Symbian.

All of these companies expect to use the success that was demonstrated in the Apple Store in App. A year after its inception, Apple argues that the App Store now has more than 65000 applications, and users who downloaded more than 1.5 billion Apps. The software developer community is also blew up over 100,000 developers to create applications for the iPhone.

In statistics, as it is easy to understand why Steve Dzhobs, chairman and CEO of Apple, do not worry about competition from other developing its own application store.

“With 1.5 billion application is downloaded, it will be very difficult for others to catch up,” he said in a statement.

In fact it will be difficult for Apple to catch now. But it is easy to understand why all these players want a piece of action. Apple has proved that the application is a powerful differentiator devices. Moreover, analysts expect Apple, to post better than expected, the results of its iPhone sales in the quarter, which ended in June.

Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster says in a research note Tuesday that he expects that Apple has sold 5 million iPhones in the June quarter. The Wall Street consensus of about 4 million people.

GPP Store is regarded as one of the main reasons why the iPhone has been so successful. But can others repeat the kind of business application success that Apple has?

It will be tough. If Apple made it easy to download and pay for applications, and the company became more attractive for developers to develop for the iPhone, a real success in the App Store, most likely due to the fact that it operates on the basis of apple e-commerce service, iTunes.

Virtual shopping is always there for phones. And because so many people already use iTunes, and are familiar with the interface, he made it much easier for that to make people buy mobile applications that use the shop. Not to mention the fact that these customers also have billing relationships with Apple, which also made it easy to monetize their application developers.

But even if all these companies are unable to catch Apple, the fact that they develop these stores, and encouraging the development of the applications should drive new services, and interesting applications for consumers
