Nokia opened its Ovi app store to users in many countries Monday, and AT&T announced an Ovi launch in the U.S. "later this year." Judging from initial reports, Apple's iPhone
doesn't have much to worry about.
BetaNews, quoting a user complaining of "mostly crappy wallpapers and ringtones," called it a "rocky start," as the Ovi Team's blog apologized for "extraordinarily high spikes of traffic that resulted in some performance issues for
users."
Other negative reviewers included PC Magazine ("The store is kind of a
mess...."), TechCrunch ("a complete disaster"), and Telecoms.com (an "underwhelming" experience).
