July 11th is almost upon us. Break out the party favors and get your mom to bake a cake!

Apple has some plans also.

Wow. Only a year old and how much it has already transformed the industry. I wonder how many apps will have been served up by the first anniversary.

There are currently 57,450. There are a few days left, so a larger number is likely

I was thinking of the number of apps downloaded, but 57k plus available is an amazing stat. It’s why I think a tablet is imminent. It’s another way to monetize the hardware market and help developers bring home the proverbial bacon. Developers will follow the cash stream.
