Analytics firm Distimo has released a new report that compares the Windows Phone 7 app store with others, including its predecessor Windows Marketplace for Mobile. Contrary to earlier reports, Distimo finds that Windows Phone 7 actually has the lowest price for all paid applications, and 57 percent of its 100 most popular apps cost less than $2.
