Developer portal improvements and stronger anti-piracy protection

Today’s update provides more advanced anti-piracy protection. While the underlying technical changes will be transparent for customers, developers will now be able to take advantage of these new protections by following the steps outlined in this anti-piracy whitepaper. As always, updates to existing applications can be submitted for free. To learn more about developing applications for Windows phones, head over to the Windows Mobile for Developers site.

Browse and buy applications from the PC
Starting today, Windows phone customers can browse, buy and download applications online at the Windows Marketplace for Mobile site. The selected applications are delivered wirelessly to the customer’s Windows phone and install the next time the Windows Marketplace client runs on the device. This creates another way for customers to easily find and purchase applications and gives developers a whole new level of exposure.

There are also reports that Windows Mobile 6.0 and 6.1 customers will get the Marketplace addon this month.

NOTE : Anyone figure out how to download it on the PC, I am lost… I tried siging it with a test account but found no option to download/queue  the app
