The Windows Mobile development team posted some more details on Skymarket which is officially known as Windows Marketplace for Mobile. The Windows Marketplace will have these features:

• An easily discovered on-device application that is installed on every Windows Mobile 6.5 device, and includes prominent placement on the Start menu.
• Global marketplace distribution in 30 countries with flexible payment options through both credit card and mobile operator payment methods.
• Single source developer-focused web site for sign-up, publishing, and management of applications in the marketplace.
• Transparent set of policies that clearly articulate the types of applications allowed in the store.
• Leverage existing Microsoft developer tools, such as Visual Studio, for faster time to market.
