T-Mobile to make App Store for all mobile phones (USA)T-Mobile is planning to create Apple like App store for all handsets and has started working with the developers in that regard. T-Mobile’s director of Mobile Applications and Partner Programs T-Mobile has said, “T-Mobile is working with the industry to foster an open wireless services platform which will provide developers with the tools and information they need to make new, innovative experiences available to T-Mobile’s more than 31.5M customers. The devPartner Community site, which is in its alpha stage, is just a taste of what T-Mobile has in store and we encourage you to stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks.”
It is anticipated that deal is going to work in a similar way to Apple’s offering with developers sharing revenue with T-Mobile though rather than than just work with one handset like the Apple App Store, to work with all T-Mobiles handset from the Sidekick to any newer Android based phones in the pipeline.
Presently, Apple takes a sign-up fee and 30 % of all sales of all paid for applications in the App Store.
