Windows Mobile AppStore called Skymarket in works?

There’s no doubt Apple (NSDQ: AAPL)’s AppStore works, hence we’re seeing Google doing the same for its Android platform. Why would Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT) rely on third parties like Handango when they can do the similar thing themselves? That seems exactly what they want to do, or at least a job posting at ComputerJobs.com suggests so.

Apparently the upcoming “marketplace service for Windows Mobile” will be called “Skymarket” and at the moment the Redmond giant is looking for a Product Manager to run it. We’re guessing Windows Mobile 7 will sport Skymarket as its integral part and yes, we’re looking forward to see that in action. In the meantime, we’re eagerly waiting for RIM to announce its app store…
