Can I access the App Store from within the iOS Simulator?

Question

Within the iOS Simulator, is it possible to access the App Store?

That is, can I install the App Store application within the Simulator and download applications t

Answer 1

It's a simulator not an emulator. Even if there was an App Store in the Simulator, none of the apps in the store would work since they are compiled for ARM CPUs while the Simulator runs x86 code.
