J.P. Morgan announced the launch of a new iPad application that allows customers to access the investment Bank’s research from their iPads. The J.P. Morgan Research iPad app provides clients with reports and analysis from more than 1,000 analysts on economic indicators, markets, companies and asset classes around the world. With the application users can access content offline and receive instant alerts when new content they pre select becomes available.

According to the latest research from app store analytics provider Distimo, over 50% of mobile apps are priced below or equal to $2 in Android Market, Apple’s App Store for iPhone and iPad, Nokia’s Ovi Store and Palm’s App Catalog.

The exceptions to the rule are BlackBerry App World (which doesn’t allow apps priced below $2.99) and Windows Marketplace for Mobile.

Finally, Microsoft’s Windows Live Messenger application has become available for iPhone. But, unfortunately, it had landed in certain regions, not everywhere, (iTunes link), just like Microsoft’s Bing for iPhone app.

As it became known, people from UK, Canada and France can enjoy Windows Live Messenger for their iPhones.

People in Belgium and other regions can only download Microsoft’s two other applications, Seadragon and Tag Reader.
