iPhone’s open development platform will be challenged by T-Mobile

The latest App Store from Apple Inc. works perfectly with the company’s latest mobile platform. The App Store and the iPhone is certainly an excellent combination, helping each other boost each other’s sales. As a result, several mobile phone companies are envious as their market sales gradually decreases.

According to the reports from Moconews, a rival of the company is now planning to release an open development platform for its entire mobile phone platforms. This is pretty much like the App Store for the iPhone and iPod Touch. T-Mobile USA is now taking new steps so that they could compete with Apple Inc. This open development platform will prepare the mobile phones of the T-Mobile USA for the coming Android going to Java and then to Sidekick and Windows Mobile.

Moconews mentioned that beginning this fall, the company (T-Mobile USA) will take an exceptional step. It would let go the company’s traditional deck on their mobile phones. T-Mobile will then replace it with a platform where many developers can participate.

This is definitely an obvious attempt on the part of T-Mobile USA to compete with the App Store from Apple Inc. However, it would do a lot of encouragement for all the developers to create more applications that are not centered around the products of Apple Inc.
