Microsoft recently announced its Windows Phone Marketplace app store had passed the 50,000 apps mark. It's still a way behind Apple's 500,000+ iOS apps but WinPho apps are no longer rarer than hen's teeth.

Natasha Lomas of Silicon.com has taken a look at Marketplace's wares and rounded up 20 business-friendly apps from Microsoft's Windows Phone smartphone platform.

App: WP Shortcut Tiles:

Here's an app that does what it says on the package - it allows users to place handy shortcuts to their homescreen for easy access, such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth settings.

Price: Free

I really appreciate this post and find the suggestions very usefull. I also appreciate you extending the list to 20, but I have one simple request: could you please correct/clarify the QR code entry. It does not specify the app name so I am searching blindly throughout the marketplace. THANKS!
