Apple had several developers actually take the stage at the WWDC 08 keynote to show off cool applications they developed for the iPhone.

Apple today also announced that its new App Store will be available in 62 countries. Users can download applications wirelessly and start using them immediately.
Apple takes 30% from what developers charge for their iPhone Apps, but that includes already all other costs like credit-card fees. Developers can still offer apps for free without charges.
