[...] Nokia Conversations have pretty much summed up what i was about to write, so instead of me going on with my personal thoughts now, I will wait a few weeks, and let the Rollout of the Ovi Store complete, because as it is, its still Rolling out to many other Countries. Finland for example has not even got the Ovi Store mobile Application yet, and the same goes for many other Countries, North America included. Its far too early for anyone to draw their conclusions on something that is not even completed. As said, i will wait a few weeks, let Ovi Store find its feet, and let the dust settle before I write about my thoughts on the Ovi Store. Thus far, my impressions are positive, (Uk sim card used), having already purchased, and downloaded a couple of applications without any problems whatsoever. [...]

I can’t tell … I still don’t get the Ovi store app offered in Download! here in Germany on my 5800.

When I visited the ovi store, it did not show many apps and games for nokia 5800. It only displayed THREE games! I’m here in the philippines. Any help?

Talk about glossing over the cracks! It is now illegal in the UK to use quotes that do not reflect the overall tone of the review for films, and it should be for you.
The store is a disaster. How can it not be compared to your leading competitor, the App Store? This is the model that you have to better. To say that the App Store had fewer apps when it opened, or that it also had server problems is the sign of poor excuses. The App Store did have both of those things (although the quality of the apps were much better than OVI’s), but you knew they did, so should have learnt from them.
I have a 5800, and really like the phone. If the apps available were up to the standard of Gravity, it would be OK. They are not and are overpriced (even Gravity, £8 on Ovi, £6.50 on mobileways).
