Korean tech giant LG is set to join the mobile app store rush with its own brand new storefront pitched at users in its home country.
Reuters reports that the company has also declared its determination to maintain a global market share target of ten per cent for this year and aims to become the number two mobile phone manufacturer by 2012.
In 2008, LG sold 100.7m phones to claim about nine per cent of the market.
These dislosures came at the domestic launch of LG's new premium Arena touchscreen phone. It has targeted five million sales for the device.
