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.

We will be giving away one Windows Phone device each to participants who present their app onsite at the last session. (A maximum of 50 winners at the last session on February 22nd, 2012. If there are more than 50 individuals presenting, 50 winners will be selected at random from the presenters. 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).

Detailed terms and conditions:

* $99 registration fee applies. We will provide up to a maximum of 50 coupons good for a free registration to the Windows Phone marketplace, to the first 50 onsite that register on the marketplace. Windows Phone Marketplace terms and conditions apply to your use of the Marketplace.

**Not available to Government or Public Sector Employees. Microsoft employees are also not eligible for this offer. Limited to one phone device per person. Participants remain responsible for acquiring a calling plan and for all related charges and taxes in connection with the Windows Phone.
