William Ho, research director (wireless services) at Current Analysis, said: "Applications have become a major part of the iPhone's appeal since the arrival of the App Store.  Whatever the issues that Apple has faced over the performance of the iPhone 3G, it has done little to dampen the enthusiasm of application developers who have been creating more and more applications for the platform."

DeviceAnywhere online is service used by thousands of mobile organizations and their developers and provides access to real mobile handsets that are each connected to live networks.
