Sony Ericsson announced its third annual Content Awards last week. Developers are invited to submit content and applications for use on Sony Ericsson devices. The company released a free SDK two weeks ago.
Sony Ericsson is asking developers to create content and applications that address three questions: How can mobile phones help us monitor our carbon footprint? How can the next generation of mobile phones make our lives less frantic? In what ways can we make our phones personal?
Entries will be judged on ease of use, entertainment factor, innovation, look and feel, and audio performance. The seven categories include Being Productive, Going Green, In-Car applications, Mobile Entertainment, Lifestyle Experiences, Themes & Graphics, and Xperia X1 Panels. The Xperia X1 is set for release outside the US before the end of the month.
The winners in each category will get a trip to Sweden to share their content with developers and company execs, and attend workshops.
For details, check out Sony Ericsson's website. The deadline for entries is 30 November.
