Voice-over-IP applications will be kept away from Microsoft’s Windows MarketPlace for Mobile store, along with programs that are larger than 10MB or anything that would change the default browser or phone dialer.
There are 12 types of applications that Microsoft will not authorize in the Windows MarketPlace for Mobile.
Marketplace for Mobile is due to launch in the second half of the year, along with Windows Mobile 6.5, the next version of Microsoft’s mobile OS.
Microsoft recently began inviting developers to sign up to sell applications in the Marketplace. In launching an application store, Microsoft is catching up to Apple, Google and Research In Motion.
