Mobilecrunch.com has reported that the Android Market has surpassed 20,000 applications. It was no surprise that Android reached this important milestone. What is surprising is that just a mere 5 months ago, there were about half the amount of Android apps there are today. While we all recognize the increasing popularity of the Android OS over the last year, it was perhaps unexpected to see app developers jump on the Android bandwagon so quickly. 20,000 may seem like a miniscule number to some when compared to the outrageous 300,000 apps available in Apple’s App Store, but Android should be commended for increasing and improving their product in the face of a strong market leader like Apple. 2010 will perhaps be the year for the Android. With dozens of Android powered handsets and even a Google phone scheduled for release, we may very well see Android start to close the gap with Apple significantly.
