Don’t ask me what the Microsoft Marketplace team is smoking/drinking…but their policy on Windows Mobile 6 and 6.1 reminds me of a drunkewn raindeer which is pulling a sledge through the snow.

After publicly declaring that the Marketplace would be a WM 6.5-only thing, their latest blog post reads as follows:

Application Submission Opens on July 27th: Windows Marketplace will open for application submissions from 29 supported countries July 27.

Windows Mobile 6.0 and 6.1 Support: Windows Marketplace will be available for Windows Mobile 6.0 and 6.1 by the end of 2009 (in addition to Windows Mobile 6.5 at launch in the fall).

Business Center: Windows Marketplace will feature a “Business Center” category for business applications.

Developer Contest: Microsoft will be disclosing the details of a Windows Marketplace developer contest on July 27.

Anyone understand what they are up to?
