The Ovi Store‘s been in business for about more than 5 months right now. Bill Perry is the Sr. Services Marketing Manager for Forum Nokia, and posted the statistics of the Ovi Store so far.

The following stats are from 26 May through 31 October:
* Available on over 100 different Nokia devices (60+ Symbian S60 devices)
* Active users from over 180 countries
* Developers from 65 countries are distributing content
* 8 countries today have local content, local language support and mobile billing: UK, Spain, France, Germany, Singapore, Australia, Italy, Russia. By the end of Q1 2010 there will be more than 20 countries.
* Top 10 Ovi Store Markets by performance in alphabetic order: Egypt, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Spain, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Russia & UK
* In almost all of the top 10 Ovi Store countries, 5800 XpressMusic and N97 are the #1 and #2 devices for Ovi Store activity and consumer engagement
* Redownload now available and search is much improved, more details (http://tinyurl.com/yf9tmbd)
* Ovi Store will ship embedded on most new compatible Nokia devices including Symbian S60 and Series 40 from Q4 2009
* On average, each registered user has downloaded at least 8 items from Ovi Store
* In October, the number of content items downloaded was over 70% higher than in Sept.

Hmmm Not too bad eh ? It isnt a huge suprise to see S60v5 Touch devices like the N97 and 5800 XM have the top Ovi Store activity, as the experience is way better on those devices.

I have to admit, I open up the Ovi Store every so often and check out the free apps on there. I havent been able to purchase an application (seeing as I dont have a Credit Card) so I havent been down that road yet.

Do you use the Ovi Store ? What do you think of the stats so far ?
