But it’s not just the support for Flash Lite GetJar has announced. The company also said they will be one of the key sponsors of the Flash Lite Developer Challenge that will see mobile content creators competing for $100,000 cash prizes. As a key sponsor, GetJar will match the $100,000 prize with additional $100,000 of marketing support for the contest winners.
Also as part of the deal, GetJar will actively promote the Developer Challenge to its 200,000-strong mobile app developer community through its website, mailings, blog and forum posts and CRM.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
