I doubt that 90% of users just use 100 apps - I counted more than 30 on my iPhone that I use at around once a week or more (some I use several times a day) if I'm not on the road. You would probably need to survey a couple of hundred folks, representative of the overall device user base, what apps they use how to come up with an estimate. Maybe soon companies like Nielsen that already give TV show ratings and Internet ratings will hand out "app ratings". -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
