Subscribe Feed (RSS)As a Verizon users, do you know what the Verizon App store looks like? If you don’t know ever, it doesn’t matter.But now you have to know.As Verizon recently has shared a number of details about its upcoming VCAST apps store , and verizon also mentiones its partnerships with Qualcomm, Research In Motion, and Microsoft.
Said like these: “Verizon noted that it does not want to compete with RIM and Microsoft’s own app stores, and will work so that they all compliment one another. Specifically, it is partnering with RIM, and will work to cross-promote apps that are available in both the BlackBerry Apps World and Verizon’s VCAST Apps Store. Verizon is looking for developers to create both on-device and in-browser applications for its phones. It is providing developers with tools such as location APIs to help take advantage of all that phones have to offer. Billing issues are still being worked out,
but Verizon’s goal is to provide users with a “one-click” experience. Developers that create apps for the VCAST store will have access to Verizon’s billing systems and marketing. Verizon will not charge developers to submit applications, and will split revenue 70% for the developer and 30% for Verizon. Verizon hopes that the submission and approval process will take no longer than 14 days. Verizon also took the time to reiterate its commitment to Qualcomm’s BREW platform for feature phones. It will offer BREW developers an open catalog that simplifies certification and on-boarding processes. It will also support free applications and speed up the time it takes to get apps to market. The VCAST apps store is expected to launch in the fourth quarter.” Verizon Iphone info

It’s time that Verizon Wireless competed. But this article is not saying anything. And i’m not a fan of VCAST anything, the interfaces on the phones (I have owned both the enV One, and enV Touch now) are not friendly; and the discussion in this article about “one-touch” does not make me think of VCAST either! I would hope they can leverage some good technology since we know it is out there, But in this area of activity choices per phone with other carriers is going to blast VZW away if they don’t act soon!
I would like to see more than simply YouTube and Facebook function on a phone that has decent touch-screen capability like my enV Touch.
