One of the biggest draws of the iPhone and iPod Touch is the Apple App Store, which allows users to download applications from a single location.

The App Store opened for business in early July. Within five months, the Apple App Store reached 10,000 applications. The App Store needed only another three months to hit 20,000 apps.

As of March 4, there are 25,979 apps, according to Mobclix, which tracks stats for the Apple App Store.
