Apple Thoughts: Planet of The Apps January 7th on CNBC

"On January 7th, 2009 at 10:00 PM ET, CNBC will be taking a closer look at how the world of mobile apps has changed the way we live with their new one-hour program 'Planet of the Apps: A Hand-Held Revolution!'"

Besides looking at what happened since the iTunes App Store opened in 2007, they will also be looking at what the competition is doing to battle Apple on this front. The show will "take a look at how the industry is changing the way we live" and sounds like they may get into some dirt, as part of the summary talks about the approval process and the problems that developers have encountered. Should be an interesting show, and comes on the heels of the CNBC debut of "Welcome to Macintosh" tonight at 9:30pm Eastern and "MacHeads, The Movie" tomorrow night and 10pm Eastern.
