Apple Thoughts: App Store Hits the 1 Billion Mark

"Apple has reached a symbolic 1 billion iPhone apps downloaded through the App Store in less than one year, and managed it at an unprecedented rate for the company. The Cupertino, Calif.-based electronics giant confirmed the event shortly before 5PM Eastern time on Thursday, but as of this writing hadn't announced the name of the customer who downloaded the 1 billionth app or the download in question."

So they finally hit the mark, and some lucky winner is going to get a nice package of prizes. If you are really into this moment and want to see how it happened, you can check out the video someone posted on YouTube. Yes, someone actually has posted a recording of the event.
