During Apple's Financial Conference Call in January, Apple's CEO stated that "The IBM Partnership is strong. In December the Alliance delivered the first 10 applications. Another 12 apps will be released this quarter including 3 new industries: Healthcare, Energy and Utilities and Industrial Products. The alliance is on track to have over 100 apps by year end. Over 130 major companies are expected to adopt the MobileFirst system using iDevices this year alone."
