Pakistan’s famous Mobile Network Operator  ufone launched Blackberry App Store. It is Pakistan’s first Blackberry Apps Store to provide wide variety of applications to its Blackberry customers. I was waiting for this event because Pakistan is one of those countries who have largest mobile users and we have not even a single mobile app store. Anyways, Ufone took the initiative and i am sure it will positively contribute towards its image as a market innovator brand. I must say that mobilink, telenor, warid and zong should look into it and instead of making adds try to come up with these sort of innovations.

You can download Blackberry applications from Ufone’s website. Not only this the OTA (over the air) download option is also available so you can get your favorite app while being on the move through your Blackberry phone. Currently they are showing 11 compatible devices but as far as my knowledge is concern these apps will be compatible more then these devices, the only thing you have to do is to check it. You can access the store by clicking here.

You will have to pay Ufone in order to download paid applications, where prices range from Rs. 200 up to Rs. 2000.

There are certain applications that are paid one, however, Ufone will provide you with the download/key (hopefully Ufone has reseller rights for such application), for rest of applications you will get activation keys within 2 days through developer.

Applications are available in three license categories

Registration Key – No key required: After purchase, you will receive the fully functional version of this software. No registration key is required.

Registration Key – Provided with purchase: This product requires a registration key to unlock the full version. Your registration key will be provided at purchase. It will be sent to you within your confirmation email.

Registration Key – Sent by developer w/in 2 business days: This product requires a registration key to unlock the full version. After purchase, your registration key will be delivered by the developer within 2 business days. Email is the typical delivery method. Please note that BlackBerry Applications Store does not have access to copies of these registration keys and cannot send them out.

How are prices?

When you compare Ufone Blackberry store prices, they are pretty fair and competitive enough when compared to other stores in the world, especially Official BlackBerry Store.
