The FT's Joseph Menn makes an interesting argument: That the App Store will prove to be Apple's most important invention ever.
Agree? Disagree?
I think the App Store has the chance to make the iPhone the dominant mobile development platform, which could create awesome Microsoft-like value over the next decade. So in terms of the potential, I agree.
That said, Google is now attacking the iPhone platform with the same strategy that Microsoft once used to attack Apple Macs--spraying software across multiple hardware vendors. And this may leave Apple vulnerable to the same flaw that nearly killed it the first time around. To build a monopoly position in smartphones, Apple will have to win in EVERYTHING, hardware and software, while Google just has to win in software.
So the game may not be over yet...
