Apple Stuffs 10,000 Apps into the iPhone App Store
IntoMobile - Cell Phone News, Information, and Analysis —
... of the very talented developers out there that have been working very hard on some fantastic (OK, and some are not very fantastic) apps for the iPhone and iPod Touch. I wonder how long it will take to hit 20,000 apps? 100,000 apps? Should be interesting to see where we sit at the same time next year.
Note: 148apps.com is so named because you can add up to 148 apps to your iPhone or iPod Touch. That’d be a lot of screens to swipe through, no?

MacBytes.com —
Mac News While several sites have reported that 10,000 iPhone Apps have been released into the App Store, the actual number of active iPhone apps that can be downloaded is about 9,676 as of today's count. The discrepancy comes from the fact that many apps have been removed from the App Store for various reasons (trademark infringement, discontinued apps, pulled and released). Still, the 10,000 active app mark should also be broken in the next few days. Games continue to dominate the App Store with 24% of all apps, followed by Entertainment (11.6%) and ...

... one large image, every icon is clickable courtesy of an invisible imagemap. (I hope that they automated it!) The 148Apps tribute page also lists a ton of fun stats about the App Store: My current “page 1″ apps are: PCalc (replaces Apple’s Calculator) , Tweetsville, Notebook, Google, Briefcase and Sonos. Favorite Web apps are: AccuWeather mobile which replaces Apple’s lame weather app, Netflix mobile , and a couple local surf reports. What about you? (Tip: TechCrunch , 148Apps )

... and iPod Touch at the App Store.
To honour this achievement 148apps.com has created a special tribute page that actually shows every Apple iPhone application icon in mini-icon form, quite a laborious task if you ask me.
Anyway, along with the mini-icons there are a few statistics to do with new submissions by month, application count by category, and application count by price. Oh, just so you know, roughly 24 percent of that 10,000 are free apps.

Stanza, #146, is the only e-book reader on 148Apps’ iPhone hit list
TeleRead: Bring the E-Books Home —
... I couldn’t see Stanza or eReader. Could eReader be missing because the search is just limited to the top 148 apps? Remember, meanwhile, that the App Store has its own search engine, both on the iPhone and within iTunes.
Keeping up with new apps: You can use RSS and Twitter to monitor newly released apps.
Detail: FlipBook Lite is also on the list, but isn’t for book reading, as best I can determine.

App Store surpasses 20,000 iPhone Apps
MobileCrunch —
After smashing through the 10,000 app mark back in November and 15,000 as of Apple’s Q4 earnings call, it appears that the App Store has breezed on through to 20,000 apps. Apptism, an iPhone app monitoring site which updates their tally each hour, puts the current count at 20,410.
Apple has yet to comment, though we’d expect an official acknowledgment of this landmark to come sometime soon.
It’s quite impressive, but also a bit worrying. It took roughly 6 months to go from 0 to 10,000 applications, and then less than ...
