Apple Thoughts: Are You Going to be the Billionth Customer?

"Apple said Friday that App Store shoppers have downloaded nearly 1 billion applications since the service launched less than one year ago and is running a promotion that will award one lucky customer with over $13,000 in Apple goodies."As of today, nearly one billion apps have been downloaded around the globe. So we just want to say thanks - a billion," the Cupertino-based company wrote in a new posting to its website that was accompanied by a digital counter that's racing towards the 1 billion mark."

A nice collection of prizes await one lucky customer in celebration of the billionth sale at the App Store, such as a fully loaded MacBook Pro, Time Capsule and $10,000.00 USD iTunes Gift Card. You can enter by purchasing an app on your Mac, iPhone or iPod Touch, or just go to the entry page and fill out a no purchase required entry.
