Why should you care?
You could go home with a Windows Phone Device** on February 22nd and you'll have your new app in the Windows Phone Marketplace!
Whether you're a mobile app guru or just starting out, the Windows Phone Marketplace is a great place to showcase your app. Many Windows Phone app developers are finding their apps are gaining more attention and downloads from the Windows Phone Marketplace vs. other marketplaces, which is increasing their downloads, revenue and exposure.
Win a Windows Phone Device for attending and completing an app!**
We will be giving away one Windows Phone device each to participants who present their app onsite at the last session. Presentations should cover an overview of the app and be under two minutes long. App should be net new, not published to the Marketplace prior to the start of this campaign, January 30th, 2012. You must be a legal resident of the United States and 18 years or older to be eligible.
