A new mobile app, supporting hundreds of business applications has been launched by Optus. It claims that it is the first initiative from an Australian mobile carrier.

Symbian, Blackberry, Windows Mobile and Android are the four main supported platforms, other than iPhone. It supports applications that protect the user's files, track the expenses, and even list the things to do.

"This dedicated Business App Store means our business customers can access a number of productivity-centric applications, amongst others. We're excited about giving our business customers a range of built for business options which will make their working day more efficient and we understand that business customers have both personal and business needs-now there is one central place to download applications", said Rohan Ganeson, Managing Director of Small and Medium Business of Optus.

To make sure whether this application is applicable or not, users can select their handset model. Optus customers can visit their website to access the Optus Business App Store.
