Windows Marketplace for Mobile

Hi folks,

Microsoft has just started their Windows Marketplace for Mobile. Thereby Microsoft enables Windows Mobile application developers to easily manage and distribute their applications. If you want to post your application you need a valid tax number and a Windows-Live ID. Furthermore you need to pay $99 US for up to 5 applications and an additional $99 US for each additional application and acknowledge the “Application Provider Agreement”. Now you can distribute your application. In return you get 70% of the profit from your applications.

The Marketplace itself will be launched in the second half of 2009 as a competitor to similar offers form Apple and Google.

Further information can be found at the Marketplace’s FAQ page.

Have fun!
