Everyone has an App Store now. It’s important though – as I was shopping for a new phone last week, that was one of my questions. “Can I buy new apps for the phone?”

Windows Mobile Marketplace is an app store for your Windows Mobile device. Microsoft is now running a contest for the best app submissions, and the prizes are pretty sweet.

  • Prizes: 4 Microsoft Surface tables (Developer Edition), online marketing & promotion of your app and challenge trophies for the mantle.
  • Applications will be judged on:
    • Most downloads of a free app
    • Most valuable app (downloads x price)
    • Most useful (as judged by Microsoft panel)
    • Most playful (as judged by Microsoft panel)
  • Contest runs from launch to Dec 31, 2009.

You can learn more about the contest and submit those apps. Submissions are accepted from all 29 supported countries. If I could code my way out of a hat, I’d enter. I love those Microsoft Surface tables!
