The over one hundred thousand apps speak otherwise. Some examples of truly innovative apps would be welcomed.
Of course 99% is crapware, in what kind of app store would be that different? But don't deny there are also great, innovative, and useful applications: Guitar Toolkit, Tap Tap, Ocarina, Remote, Shazam, Wobble,
I also love how Apple basically ripped off the 'classics' app guy, but that's another story.
FYI that classics guy asked Delicious Library creator Wil Shipley for his blessing before Classics was released because of the similarities between both applications. Wil recently twittered:
I guess it's not enough Apple has hired every employee who worked on Delicious Library, they also had to copy my product's look. Flattery?
and also
Pages. Numbers. Keynote. iTunes. All these started out as products at tiny companies, not Apple. Innovation comes from them.
