Bigger question is if you can earn a decent living on such apps.
Too much fanfare about successes like the 1 bio picture app compared to thousands of non-farting apps ;-)

>Well, tablets are not toys. IMO you are deluding yourself into a false sense of security if you think they are. We are probably in general agreement that tablets/smartphones and more traditional devices like desktops will both be important going forward. Would I want to crunch a sales database with millions of records on an iPad? Nope. But would a desktop be appropriate for a grocery shopping assistant app, for example? Nope again. Give me a mobile app for that 100 times out of 100. Developing that kind of app is a day job.
