As Apple prepares to deliver its 4th quarter financial results, 148apps is reporting that at least 278,000 iOS apps are currently available. Specifically, there are 278,723 active apps in the US App Store (as of this writing), and just over 56,000 active publishers. For now, book apps are the most popular category (48,171 active titles) and lifestyle is the least (18,286 active titles).
Most Apple watchers expect impressive numbers from Apple this afternoon, as shares recently broke US$300, and Brian White with Ticonderoga Securities has suggested that Apple could sell as many as 45 million iPads in 2011. Considering that there are now seven retailers selling iPads in the US (Apple, Best Buy, Target, Walmart, Verizon, AT&T, and Micro Center), plenty of holiday shoppers will have a chance to see one.
We'll have live coverage of the financial conference call later today at 5:00 PM ET.
