1 - there are already what 600,000+ apps for iOS? The main apps are there. Advance CAD programs are not that useful on phones or even pads. If Apple has 20% of a billion that's a potential audience of 200 million. If what people predict comes true in 10 years everyone will have a smart phone.


As a developer, would you make a local app in India or Brazil when the iPhone has a sub-5% smartphone market share?

As a consumer, would you buy a smartphone in India or Brazil if they dont have local apps?

Global marketshare numbers are nice, but they dont tell the whole story. Unless Amazon's streaming service is playing the latest Bollywood titles, there is going to be a need for local apps.
