1 Billion App Store

The app store is about to hit one billion App Store downloads and Apple is celebrating it with a bang!


















Apple is giving away an $10,000 iTunes Gift Card, an iPod touch, a Time Capsule, and a MacBook Pro. All you have to do is download any application (free or paid) from the App Store and you are entered to win. You can download up to 25 apps a day to be entered into the contest. The contest lasts until the one billion mark is reached.

Be sure to read the Official Rules before starting the contest. You can also view the All Time Top 20 Applications.

If you don't have an iPod touch or iPhone, you can still enter this contest, just fill out the win without a purchase form.
So how much of a chance do you have of winning this contest? We've calculated that the contest will last for about 9 days ending on the 20th of March when the counter will reach 1,000,000,000. If you were to download the maximum amount of applications (25 per day) for that amount of time, your odds of winning are 1:324,444. Or if you aren't very good with numbers, very very slim.
