Steve Jobs’ mastermind has not only brought glory to Apple, but the genius has led the Apple Inc to conquer almost all the fields in the tech market, which the company is currently deadling with.

Last month, Apple did not only release a nearly-flawless OSX for the iPhone 3G, but they’ve also achieved the unparalleled feat of the 1 billion app downloads from the App Store.
Therefore, right from the cool smartphone apps, down to the latest operating systems and regular updates, for the high end cell phones, the Apple has got everything right in their strategy.
However, the most noticeable part of the story is that Apple has done it only with the help of the solo contender in their line up of their cell phone releases – the legendary iPhone, which was released as iPhone 2.0, following by few updates and then the ultimate iPhone 3G.
On the other hand, several other big shots like Blackberry, Samsung, and the likes of them, have been trying hard to compete with the Apple Inc, but nobody has tasted any kind of success till date.
Apple is currently celebrating the 1billionth download of the apps from the App Store, while a young 13 year boy named Connor joined the party, as he became the lucky winner of Apple’s contest.
For downloading a small iPhone app called the Bump, Connor is eligible for the lottery of his lifetime – a gift voucher worth $10,000 to download anything from iTunes, a MacBook Pro, iPod Touch, and TimeCapsule.
So for now, it’s Apple all over the place, and you can just keep guessing until Steve Jobs comes out with another masterpiece like the iPhone for the loyal Apple fans!
