I think he's referring specifically to Android apps, as Apple do regulate their App Store, but Google seem to let any old crap onto the Android store!
Keep the crap apps out?! How will they compete with Android and Apple's claim to fame of having so many life changing apps?
I wonder if the media...

"BT will cut its copper-access wholesale prices for other ISPs from January 2010, with bandwidth charges falling by almost 50 percent and rental charges "standardised at the lowest current price", BT said in its statement."
Wholesale prices fall and yet the consumer price does not? bit of a cheek aint it considering how crap dsl qos is.
This 24 Mbps expansion will increase crosstalk and intermodulation distortion on line bundles.. cue a load more long line ADSL customers dropping off like flies..
the faster speeds for those close to the exchange will come with an ever increasing "have and have not" result .. increasing the digitial divide..
well done BT :)
Things are not what they once where, thats true for single lined copper cables whether coming from exchanges or cabs signal to noise ratio's etc, the industry has recently discovered that they can over come those issues by taking a second copper line and wrapping or twisting it around the first copper cable already in place.
This dramatically reduces the noise from the first line and thus increases the integrity of the signal without having to amplify the current anymore, but how many of BT's customers or exchanges have had that upgrade already is anybody's guess, very few i would have imagined.
Even virgin are mindful of this, but when they laid the cables from the cabs to the houses they laid more than one per house anyways so its not such a biggie for them, their planning to utilize this to take there 50Mbit service to 100Mbit maybe even further, but I don't think virgin customers suffer quite as badly as ADSL customers on this front, because the cabs are closer to the homes.
Weather using FTTH/P or FTTC methods this is not really the issue everyone one should be worrying about because they will have lay/laid more than enough cabling, what customers should be worried about is the server backbone infrastructures, if this is weak then it doesn't matter what they put on the label the service will buckle then fail.
The only concern if you are a existing BT customer I would be worried about is if they plan to deploy FTTE exchange and not the FTTC method, because if they deploy it to the local exchange then the distance to the exchange problem will still exist.
Rental prices may not be falling in line with Wholesale prices, but that probably reflects the fact that more wholesale bandwdith is being provisioned to cope with the increasing demands placed by video eg iPlayer. So for the same rental price customers may be getting more bang for their buck.
