Windows Phone Marketplace reached 100,000 app submissions



It took the platform the relatively short 20 months to reach the magic number - that's quicker than Android (24 months), but slower than iOS (16 months). Out of the 100,000+ submitted apps, 88,371 are available for download across 60 countries. That number is bound to increase with around 300 every day. Don't be surprised however, if the pace picks up even further - after all, Windows Phone Apollo is right around the corner.

Hopefully some sanity will be maintained, as large number of apps in application store doesn't mean much, but rather having quality applications does matter more IMHO.
