It seems to be App Store week at the blog. Previously, Google and Microsoft already gave knowledge of their plans to launch; now Samsung joins the party.
Samsung will reveal it’s Symbian Smartphoneshow next month at the Symbian Smartphoneshow. The portal for developers went live a couple of weeks ago and a closed Beta of the store went public on Monday.
With the launch of this shop, Samsung clearly commits itself to Symbian’s S60 platform. To support developers, the company has made available several SDK’s on the development portal, which include usage of the Innov8 optical joystick feature that is available on several devices.
