BlackBerry Mobile App World vs. Apple iPhone App Store Fantastic Cell Phone
April 7, 2009 | Cell Phones, Component, Electronics, iPhone | 2 CommentsSmartphones are great tools when we first decompress them out of their boxes, but as with most things, we want to be fantastic and that’s where applications come in. These applications allows your device to become well more than it is from the time you purchased. The iPhone seems to start off this trend and with the launch of the Apple App Store things were about to get much better.
There is no doubt that RIM has a great product with its BlackBerry devices, but they are a little late to the party app. The BlackBerry Storm, as the iPhone is based on applications to do more than the sum of its parts, and RIM has something to do with their mobile phone, in competition with the likes of the iPhone. BlackBerry Mobile App world was launched yesterday at the CTIA Wireless 2009, and we decided to have our first look.
BlackBerry App world like iTunes, where you can browse, purchase and download an application directly on your BlackBerry device. Before you begin, you’ll need to download the cover. Once done a BlackBerry App World icon will appear on your Homescreen.
The system works the same way as the Apple App Store, BlackBerry, but still have a long way to go with the Mobile World App. It is early days of this new service, so you can expect, there is not that many applications available, but they will come.
The interface is not as smooth and black as the App Store, but Apple has an edge. One problem that users might have a problem with the fact that you can pay with PayPal with BlackBerry Mobile App World.
