Windows Phone Apps: Microsoft and LG to Offer Free Premium Apps

Windows Phone 7.jpgOn Monday, Windows Phone 7 launches in the United States, and to entice Windows Phone buyers, Microsoft and LG will be giving away premium apps.  LG makes the LG Quantum.  Microsoft is heavily promoting its new phone operating system as a way to spend less time to get more information.

LG and Microsoft will offer Windows Phone 7 apps in
popular categories, including social connectivity, gaming and helpful
utilities.  Ten free applications with a value of more than $30 (U.S.)
will be given away every 60 days.

Windows Phone 7 customers can
download these applications for free (for a period of 60 days) via LG
Application Store, which will be accessible directly from LG Windows Phone 7 models.

LG will promote the new apps through
in-store sales events and on the LG Mobile Global Facebook page
(http://on.fb.me/bltMvp), creating a larger market for developers and
bringing them closer to their audiences.

LG will also be offering its Windows Phone 7 customers
free access to more applications developed directly by the company. 
These applications will also be available from the LG Application Store
and will span social networking services, such as Type n Walk and Voice
SNS, as well as practical tools like Subway AR.

LG and Microsoft's developer program will kick off in November, giving developers promotional opportunities.
