Just before 10pm on Thursday, Apple delivered the billionth App Store application, just nine months after the store launched.

The whole countdown process was slightly arbitrary, but nonetheless represents a significant milestone for Apple. Although not without its share of controversy, the App Store has been a resounding success for mobile computing, and has forced Apple's competitors to take similar steps.

Someone won a fair amount of Apple gear as part of a contest surrounding the promotion, but Apple has yet to announce the winner.
