Nokia Ovi store is catering to different types of phones not to mention oses(s40, s60 so on) whereas Appstore only caters to one type of phone.. The one and only iphone.. That's why it's easier for apple.. Give it some time to grow.. Anyway.. Nokia phones don't need Ovi store to start with anyway.. Sources are plentiful.. Not like Iphones.. Without appstore their just child's toy.. On second thought, they're still child's toy even with appstore.. LOL

This will not work. Majority of Nokia users want things for free. The reason why the Apple App Store is such a success, its because iphone users have the financial resources to pay for apps and internet, Nokia users don't. And again, purchasing apps from the Apple App Store is very convenient and easy regardless which iphone you have. I've heard that apps on the OVI store are not compatible with all Nokia phones. SAD.

Nokia really messed up on this one
they should have made the the ovi store universal to all it's devices

but seperate them as well
Ovie store for s40 and ovistore for s60
and have proper catagories for everything
and then label everything if it's Compadible with the feature packs
they need to fix this fast

It looks like Nokia is finding out the hard way that Apple can make things look a lot easier than they are.

It's really bad that Nokia employees do not understand the importance of separating Java apps and S60 apps. Some Java apps look good but the ugly looking Java games will be giving the Symbian platform a bad view...ahhhhhggg

The Washington Post described the opening as a complete disaster, as did All about Symbian.

I had a look on my N82, you can't seem to search for anything, pages take forever to load, if at all after wasting half an hour I found four free games, you can't tell if they are java or Symbian.

If they want to copy Apple they want to do a lot better job.
