So, moving right along.

It would seem that the speculation of a Nokia App Store (based upon standardised QT toolkit for S60 and Maemo) was right on the money (forgive me if this isn't new info). It's called the OVI Store and is currently accepting publisher registration.

Considering that Maemo seems to constitute a large part of Nokia's future strategy, and news of the cross platform QT (and Java and flash), it wouldn't be out of place to see these apps find their way into Maemo. It is rumored that Nokia is considering Linux (read: Maemo) for future high-end phones.

Here's the question though: would you mind having closed apps on your open system?

I think it would be a FANTASTIC idea, that would open the tablet to a much broader market, and provide real incentives for developers.


YARR!
