500 Apps Launch on the iTunes App Store

One's got to wonder when Apple will rename the iTunes to the iEverything store. With it now serving application content along side it's media content, the name would seem to almost not fit anymore.

A brief review of the 500 apps show a wide variety. Everything from the very detailed Netter's Anatomy Flash Cards to the silly iPint are available. With a number of the apps also fitting in the corporate space it's clear that there is a very large and well developed community behind this new application platform / venue.

Clearly standing out among the crowd is the gaming community. While this was rumored to be the belle of the ball it's proven to be even better than once thought. Games like CroMag Rally and MotoRacer take full advantage of the OpenGL ES engine in the iPhone and give remarkable results to the end user. If you haven't seen a demo I strongly suggest it if you in the gaming market at all. The threat Apple brings to other mobile handheld gaming is palpable once you see this..
