BlackBerry developers invited to submit apps to online store

The BlackBerry smartphone online Application Storefront is now seeking applications from developers.

BlackBerry maker RIM said, "We are counting down to a spring launch and are accepting submissions right now.

"The storefront will be an ideal spot for developers to bring their applications, whether they are consumer-focused or target business users."

The storefront was announced by RIM at its first developer conference in the US last autumn.
