Nokia Ovi Store hits 1 million downloads per day Following Nokia's earnings report today, there was an interesting note about the Ovi Store, Nokia's application store for its mobile phones.
The Ovi Store is now seeing 1 million downloads per day, a strong milestone for the service that opened to criticism last year for its sloppy launch.

Nokia VP of Product, Media George Linardos said earlier this month that the company was looking to re-do the store, and that a V2 should be available by the Spring. Apparently, the Ovi Store has also surpassed the iPhone App Store in most territories in Asia and Latin America, although it is important to note that Apple has a much smaller base in those nations.



In comparison, the Apple App Store is seeing 300 million-plus downloads per month.
