Honeycomb has 60,000+ Apps!

I was just browsing the tech section of news360 on my xoom and I found a REALLY interesting article. It basically says that the app count is so low because over 40% of standard android apps SCALE PERFECTLY on honeycomb so app makers don't have to make their apps tablet specific. That brings the app count to 60,000! Why doesn't Google publish these statistics?

Here's a link to the article.

Sure they can just scale up phone apps but they were meant for small screens, theyt doent really take advantage of the tablet form factor

Yes, it would be nice if there was a tag that all devs would put in their descriptions to make them easier to find. I often search for 'zoom' or 'tablet' to see what comes up. Sometimes apps look good, sometimes they shouldn't even mention tablet in their description. I tried a search for 'honeycomb' once, not reccomended!
