Answer:

Answer by Evolving SquidWhen considering applications for your phone, be it the latest brain-turd from Steve Jobs, or Android, or BlackBerry, or whatever, it is necessary to look at the relevant information.

The number of applications available is not relevant.

The number of useful/good applications available is relevant.

Crap applications boost total numbers, but if it’s a useless application, does it really matter that it is available?

Overall, Android is equal to or slightly superior in terms of available applications that people are interested in and find useful, particularly in no-cost applications that are useful. Blackberry seems to lag behind, but they are making progress as well.

All platforms have a plethora of useless applications that number in the tens or hundreds of thousands.
