It seems like everyone and their grandmother has an app store these days. From the pioneering and trend setting Apple Appe Store, to the brash upstarts Android Market and Windows Marketplace, just about every carrier and mobile manufacturer is looking to offer its own application store to the app addicted masses. This time the culprit is Vodafone, which has stated that its new app store will be suitable for its entire lineup of handsets. Vodafone will be providing phone billing, much to the envy of most Americans who must still rely on their credit cards for many different services.. With other app providers already far ahead of Vodafone, it is entirely possible that the initial favorable reaction may dissipate in to disgust and frustration at the cost of this uphill struggle. The Apple App Store has provided more than one million downloads to the iPhone community and it will take a long time, if ever, for Vodafone to reach a similar feat.
