Re: Is there a reson for the lacking of apps in ovi?
 

Laughingman, yeah that's what I meant to say...apps are more on the future than now. But I suspect nokia will release pr 1.2 with a FEW well known apps since they're already being coded. I hope they release shAzam as shown

i thought it had already been released. but yeh it would make sense or maybe hold onto till the normal update date which is a friday isnt it?

Heh, I'm a fairly early iPad adopter and I think it was well worth th price of admission. Their unified development environment (heck, it's basically an oversized iphone/touch anyway) lends itself very well to iPad's quick start.

There are already 5000 'native' iPad apps (optimized for its screen size and new UI elements) and it can also run the 190,000+ iPhone apps (pixel doubled).

I wonder when QT4.6 will gain traction and 'explode' through Ovi store.

hehehe I love the way most threads on this site devolve into a pr1.2 discussion and then Chuck Norris, Just as I have done ;)

Seriously though, I wonder if flash 10 will make things better? I seriously think that if everyone were to support something like Flash, as in the ability to use alot of the phones functions then you could see an awesome rise in apps. If you could develope for one phone but it could be used on almost all then your onto a winner!

Guys, I am only on page 21 of this thread, but I have to go now. I just wonder if any one that has tried the PR1.2 RC noticed any difference in performance when using the MAFW Equalizer. Are any of you using that?

Edit: Oops, how did I end up in this thread? :confused:

I hope not.
Spyware on my N900?
Better be joking.

Re: [Maemo 5] We need more apps! Why aren't there more applications in Ovi and Extras?
 

I'm fairly sure the answer the original question is : Nokia keeps messing people up because the product is fairly raw. I'm sure the MeeGo announcement has made people especially reluctant until they've got a concrete target platform.

"You must obey me and install this app or else my sharks with freaking laser beams attached to their heads will kill you!"

Re: [Maemo 5] We need more apps! Why aren't there more applications in Ovi and Extras?
 

I am not buying this explanation. It is not diabolical enough. Surely, Nokia keeps messing people up for a much better reason. Maybe they are a secret branch of a certain Cupertino company, running a large-scale global promotion campaign for that company's product. Or maybe they just want you mad, all of you, mad, absolutely raving mad... Well you get the picture.
