"After last week's news, I'm pleased to tell you that Windows Marketplace for Mobile has today reached another major milestone by adding support for Windows Mobile 6 and 6.1 devices. This is an especially proud day for Microsoft because it marks our fulfillment of the Marketplace vision that we put forth only 9 months ago at Mobile World Congress. Last week we expanded the Marketplace experience to the PC and updated the developer portal to include stronger anti-piracy protection features for developers. Today, Marketplace is delivering some great free new features that enhance and expand the Marketplace experience to even more Windows Mobile customers."

Windows Mobile Marketplace is now available for pre-6.5 phones as a download. While I suppose you could have gotten it on your phone prior to now... the release today is suited for older phones and official!

Sooner or later will have to check Windows Marketplace out - on my 6.1 Fuze - but have to admit that my initial reaction was along the lines of "Ho-Hum... What could Marketplace POSSIBLY have to offer that would be the least bit interesting?"

Then it struck me that I have become thoroughly Jaded - and stuck in my ways - and that MY initial reaction is not likely to be that of a newer user (assuming that there ARE any "New" Windows Mobile users! ).

Maybe what I need is a set of New Eyes out of which to (re)view the current windows application world....
