The study, which wasconducted by the independent analyst house mobileSQUARED on behalf ofAirwide Solutions, revealed overwhelming enthusiasm for the App Storeconcept with all operators questioned planning to keep a degree ofcontrol in their own app store environments. The survey demonstrated asplit between those who expect to directly control less than 10 percentof the apps and services launched (45 percent), and those who plan tocontrol 20-30 percent (36 percent). However, this dynamic couldsignificantly increase the amount of fragmentation that applicationdevelopers and publishers will need to address if they want to deployservices across multiple operators and on multiple handsets.
