Nokia’s Ovi Store, the company’s answer to Apple’s App Store and Google Android saw its launch yesterday. The service has had a slow start as a spike in traffic has meant that many people have been unable to get into the store.

Having a quick browse around the store earlier today, the only handsets that can be chosen on the website are around 50 Nokia handsets only. We do know that Symbian S40 and S60 handsets from Samsung and LG will also be supported, although there is no official confirmation of this on the site right now. However, i8910 Omnia HD users are already reporting that the Ovi store can be accessed from the handset and a number of apps can be downloaded and installed. Let us know your experiences of the Ovi store in the comments below or in the forum.
