Now Accepting MeeGo Apps for Netbooks and Tablets
Delivering superior experiences for multiple form factors and multiple screen sizes represents a great opportunity for developers. MeeGo brings the ability to easily and rapidly create a variety of these experiences across many computing device types.
The Intel AppUp developer program now provides resources and tools they need to create, distribute, and sell applications for MeeGo tablets and netbooks. That means everything from validation to eventual distribution through the Intel AppUp center for MeeGo.
Throughout 2011, the developer program will be hosting application labs to provide hands-on training for MeeGo worldwide. In addition, we are also giving away MeeGo-based devices as software development platforms for early adopters to jumpstart development.
