Looks like Marketplace on Windows Phone 7 will not be restricted by regional content restrictions… Nice..

windows marketplace Fix
Chief among them is the new ability to install programs to storage cards, and the ability for the user to switch regions. Also quite significant is those willing to submit free apps will no longer have to pay $10 to submit to additional markets.
World View: previously known as “geo selector”, the World View feature will allow Marketplace users to browse and purchase applications from different geographic catalogs. For example, a user in France could choose to browse the English US catalog, or a user in Canada could browse the catalog from Japan. All application prices will show up in the user’s local currency and Microsoft will be in touch with registered independent software vendors (ISVs) in the weeks ahead to provide step-by-step instructions on how to re-price their apps for all markets.
Installation onto storage cards: a highly requested feature by end users, it will allow users to install applications downloaded from Marketplace onto storage card memory. This will solve a common pain point today where the main memory of the phone runs out after installing a few apps from Marketplace.

Screenshot
The initial report is here : http://www.1800pocketpc.com/2010/01/22/unacceptable-behaviour-by-developer-in-windows-mobile-marketplace.html
We covered the story with screenshots from Snow Rally City Stage and Speed City 3D which looks quite nice on the marketplace while the ingame screenshots were not that appealing. The developers have got back to us with this statement
The screenshots we submitted are rendered by OpenGL ® or OpenGL ES ®. The screenshots are shared for all platforms including devices powered by Open GL ES. We have added a note for the screenshots at our website: “Screenshots and movie on this page are rendered by OpenGL ® or OpenGL ES ®.” Since most Windows Mobile devices do not provide Open GL ES support, we decided to submit new screenshots.
The email was caught up in the SPAM folder which is the reason when the devs could not reply sooner. We would like to thanks them for taking the time to get back to us and for replacing the screenshots. ( i am guessing it will go online once marketplace approves the submission ). Special thanks goes to Frank Prengel and the guys from the Marketplace Team who looked in to the issue. I am sure all marketplace users will be happy to learn about this.
