Wow, ALK Technologies mustiness be happy with the great class they’ve had – firstly, releasing what I think is the best Sat Nav software for the iPhone (at half the monetary value of some of their competitors), and then coming in at Number 1 in terms of paid-for Apps downloads (in the UK)!

Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) recently released their stats for this class, and CoPilot was round top of the pile – followed by it’s well-known competition, TomTom. The difference between the deuce apps may have been small, but the monetary value differential is quite substantial – to my psyche at least. I can’t fully comparability apples with apples since I’ve not been able to endeavor the TomTom App (yet – maybe when TomTom PR spring me a copy to try! Hint!), but CoPilot does definitely fall in to that class of must-rich person Apps on the iPhone.

You tin see the full list of Apps in a Guardian paper article here.

CNBC recently aired a programme called “Inside the Mind of Google (NSDQ: GOOG)” and revealed that Google is workings on a visual search project that internally is referred to as Google Goggles. The application, which volition chancellor on Android devices, will let a drug user centering a photo of anything and then Google volition deliver search results based on that effigy. Google Product Manager Hartmut Neven took a photograph of the Santa Monica wharf during a demonstration presumption to CNBC interviewer Calophyllum longifolium Bartiromo and the application correctly identified the photo and gave relevant hunt results. It’s good it worked for the purposes of the demonstration, but back in Aug of this year when Google was examination the diligence with a focus grouping, they didn’t like what they were being shown. Google Goggles is built on circus tent of engineering that was acquired when Google purchased Neven Vision in 2006. Originally his software was used for facial nerve recognition, but now Google has become more ambitious. No clue when this will be available for the public to test out, or for which platforms, but at least you have some estimate of where the troupe is heading.

Apple (NSDQ: AAPL)’s AppStore saw almost 1,400 iPhone apps launch in just a single solar day, that, in and of itself, could be taken as grounds that mobile apps ar hot. And, with the increasing popularity of smartphones, mobile apps will continue to be a hot topic. So hot, in fact, that a new reputation from marketplace enquiry firm Yankee Group has prognosis that smartphone mobile apps will driving force $4.2 billion in receipts through the US by 2013. That outgrowth rides on the back of an expected smartphone-upsurge that should take the US fleet of roughly 40 million smartphones to about 160 million in figure by 2013.

Now, you we can add “mobile publicizing high quality” to that tilt. A new survey from research house GfK NOP and Brightkite suggests that the iPhone is a more effective mobile publicizing platform. Mobile River phone users are significantly more likely to remember mobile advertisements viewed on the iPhone than those viewed on non-iPhone hardware.

The iPhone has already polarized the global mobile marketplace into iPhone and non-iPhone camps, and it seems that Cupertino has managed to do the same to mobile advertising. In look at ad recall rates across all types of mobile advertisements (mobile web, SMS, gaming, etc.), it’s open that the iPhone stands on its own. In the mobile advertising worldly concern, it’s iPhone or tear.

For exercise, after wake a web-based mobile ad, 28.4% of iPhone users recalled the ads, whereas only 10.7% of non-iPhone users remembered eyesight the same ads. Advertisements through LBS (location-based services) applications yielded the largest disagreement between iPhone users and, well, the ease of the mobile phone marketplace – 15.4% of iPhone users recalled LBS ads, with 4.3% of non-iPhone users recalling the ads.

What accounts for the iPhone’s superiority in mobile advertising? The iPhone’s huge multi-touch display might play a part in the Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) handset’s mobile ad prowess, but that doesn’t account for higher recollection rates in text- and radio-based ads. It could be that iPhone users ar already more “tuned in” to their iPhone, due to the iPhone’s power to serve up treasure trove of data from multiple sources through intuitive applications, devising for more receptive publicizing “targets” – a compelling possibility, presumption that a third base of all mobile ads are pulled down by smartphones. But, we’d have to study advertising recall rates on iPhone versus other smartphones to determine just how much the iPhone’s UI plays a role in publicizing memorability. Or, it could just be that iPhone users ar primed to bargain the sort of gadgets and tech services offered through mobile ads.

Whatever the case, mobile advertisers may see the growth smartphone marketplace as a electric potential blessing. Some advertisers ar already embrace the iPhone with interactive ads tailored specifically to Apple’s iPhone OS. The popularity of touchscreen smartphones whitethorn just drive mobile publicizing into the next ten.
