Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT) CEO Steve Ballmer reportedly had some variety words for its long-meter opposition Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) and its App Store. Will wonders never cease?

“Apple’s done a very nice line of work that allows citizenry to monetize and commercialize their intellectual prop,” Balmer reportedly said about the App Store shoemaker’s last week at the University of Washington.

This is a remarkable reversal for Ballmer, who has been less than kind regarding the iPhone (see video below). Some might say this is a move to relaxation relationships with Apple in order to unite against the green foe Google (NSDQ: GOOG). A few weeks ago, the hot rumour was Bing would replace Google as the default option search on the iPhone. But I think that’s variety of a reach. It’s impossible to to not acknowledge the success the App Store has been over the shoemaker’s last few days, even Ballmer knows that.

Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) has just released a number heavy press freeing, here is what you need to know:

Between the iPhone and the iPod Touch, there ar now over 50 million devices on the marketplace that run Apple’s iPhone OS There are more than 85,000 applications in the Apple App Store Over 2 1000000000 applications wealthy person been downloaded from store There are now over 125,000 iPhone developers out there

And of course, two quotes from Steve Jobs:

“The pace of App Store downloads continues to accelerate with users downloading a staggering two 1000000000 apps in just over a year, including more than half a 1000000000 apps this quarter alone,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s chief executive officer. “The App Store has reinvented what you can do with a mobile handheld twist, and our users ar clearly loving it.”

Peter Kafka, from The Wall Street Journal did some maths to figure out that it took Apple a little over a year to stretch the 1.5 billion download mark, which meant users were downloading apps at a pace of 4.1 million per solar day. From that point, it took only 76 years to smasher 2 billion applications, so the pace of users downloading apps is now 6.6 one thousand thousand per solar day. Pretty impressive stuff.

It seems that, when it comes to connecting handheld mobile devices, cafe wireless local area network hostpots across the US service darn near all of their radio bits and bytes to the iPhone OS. The iPhone OS (which runs on the iPhone and iPod Touch) accounts for 97.6% of all handheld devices logged onto wireless local area network hotspots tracked by JiWire – 54.2% manipulation the iPhone and 43.4% are using the iPod Touch.

Taking the iPod Touch out of the equating for a consequence, it’s interesting to see just how far ahead of other devices the iPhone stands – more than one-half of all mobile devices using coffeehouse WiFi are iPhones. The closest competing handset in terms of cafe WiFi hotspot market contribution is the Nokia (NYSE: NOK) N95. In fact, the Sony PSP is the second base most used handheld gimmick at these wireless local area network hotspots.

One way to looking at the data is that the iPhone makes vane browse so easy that users are more likely to record hop on the selective information superhighway for a quick stint. It also helps that all iPhone users are given free people access to wireless local area network hotspots at Starbucks and Barnes & Noble stores in the US.

Here’s our yield: iPhone users love cafe WiFi hotspots.
