Attention developers (yeah, yeah ‘Developers! Developers! Developers!’ I can just hear you!)– Microsoft has finally announced some juicy details about the new app store that will be available with Windows Mobile 6.5.

Developers looking to sell their applications through the upcoming Windows Marketplace can look forward to getting 70% of the revenue from the sales of each application though developers can choose to distribute their applications at absolutely no cost or set their own pricing for each market with the Marketplace due to launch in 29 countries initially.

Microsoft will be charging $99/year for registration and then another $99 per application. But for the store’s first year, developers can submit up to five of their applications for free!

More details to come, once Microsoft has finally opened their doors for registration, which is rumoured to be happening sometime this spring.
