Verizon Wireless announced today its Get It Now customers are feeding an insatiable appetite for downloadable applications. As of 12 Noon on Sunday, June 8 - just eight months since the Get It Now national launch - customers will have downloaded 11,762,894 Get It Now games, ring tone packages, entertainment applications and more (a single download may consist of a bundle of up to 10 ring tones; each month, ring tone packages are one of the most popular downloads).
