Canadian smartphone makers Research in Motion (RIM) has announced that 3 billion apps have been downloaded from BlackBerry App World.While this number is small in comparison to the 30 billion milestone reached by Apple's App Store, it's a pretty impressive figure for the Blackberry maker, which recently announced a $518m quarterly loss. BlackBerry users download an average of 2.5 million apps a day.
"It took 786 days to reach the one billion mark, 210 days to reach two billion, and only 176 days to reach the three billion number."
The company also pointed out that it now has 90,000 apps (counting apps for both smartphones and for the PlayBook) with 28,000 vendors up for sale, as it begins to catch up to Google Play and the Apple App Store.
