Windows Phone 7 Gold Rush
According to most sources, Windows Phone 7 devices will not be available to purchase by the public or even developers until October. The Marketplace for WP7 apps will likely open for Windows Phone 7 app submissions in October. This is a very good opportunity for .Net developers to get ahead of this wave, and trust me, it will be a BIG wave. Check out the YouTube video Windows Phone 7 Gold Rush at this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZaybLKetuA
A very strong kickoff for the Windows Phone 7 MarketPlace
If you’re a developer on the .NET platform and the only way you have to make money is to invest your time in developing an app.,
the Windows Phone 7 MarketPlace could be your gold rush. Why? Because the MarketPlace will open with 90 000 potential customers.
Yes, Microsoft just announced that
all fulltime employees will be getting a free Windows Phone 7 when the device is released. So if you are among the
first to have an application in the MarketPlace, you have a strong chance to make money. The rumor is that 1 million
devices will be sold by Christmas. Even if it’s 500 000 sold, that’s still a chance to make a lot of money with your own
application that you can test on a device at the DevTeach bootcamp before the stores open!
If you are into this new gold rush, you must check out the DevTeach Windows Phone 7 Boot Camp. It’s 3 days of training
presented in two days in 4 cities. Colin Melia will have a device on site and if you’ve already started an application,
you’ll be able to test it on the device during the Boot Camp. Check out the details of this
boot camp at this link.
