Verizon Droid Release Will Propel Android Market

The release of the Verizon Droid is going to be a big deal for other Android users, as this will help to propel the Android Market into something bigger than it has ever been. The Motorola Droid could be the handset that helps to increase the amount of apps available for Android handsets.

According to Mobile Entertainment News, analytics firm Flurry said that we need to prepare ourselves for an apps explosion on Android Market, this could be the start of the battle with Apple’s App Store, who offers apps for the iPhone and iPod Touch.

Flurry has said that they have seen an increase of 94 percent in applications being developed for the Android Market; this is for the months September and October. Flury said that the main reason for this explosion is because of Google’s recent partnerships with T-Mobile and Motorola, but the most recent partnership with Verizon will have the biggest effect.

One thing is certain, the iPhone is still the most popular handset when it comes to apps, but Apple had better start watching its back as Android is coming.
