Hi All,
I have a question on the evolution of the term App Store. Was the App Store came into Picture with Apple App Store? Or the App Store existed even before the apple started it.
Because even before the iphone OS we had Symbian OS and there were a lot of companies who did Mobile Application development. So even with that why didn't they become so successful like what apple app store is today. Is it simply because of the Technology advancement like faster processor, graphics ship, touch screens and other items. Or it it just because of the superior API's provided by the Apple for mobile application development.
Also did we have any other Mobile application platforms other than Symbian and Iphone OS? And how were the applications distributed?
I am actually doing a paper on the above and am collecting evidence on that. Would be great if you people can share some of your thoughts.
THanks
Hari
