It’s not official until Apple makes it so, but expect this blip to pop up Apple’s July 19th financial results call: the iPad now has more than 100,000 native apps available for it.
That’s sickly impressive. In just 453 days since the original iPad’s debut, iOS devs have pushed over 100,000 native or universal iPad apps.
That’s a record: it took Apple more than 16 months to put together 100,000 iPhone apps.
Kudos to Apple for putting together another fantastic app library. I just wish more of those apps were universal and not separately priced “HD” versions.
