Entries for 2009 Apple Design AwardsThe Now Accepted
In a short email sent to the ADC network, Apple announced that applications for the Apple Design Awards can now be submitted. The dead-line is n May 4th. As usual, the winners will be announced during the WWDC.
Let your creativity shine as we honor the year's best-designed applications for Mac and iPhone at WWDC 2009. Winners will take home prizes of great Apple hardware—along with the respect, admiration, and envy of their peers from around the world. Enter today and put your work in the spotlight.
This year Apple decided to deliver awards to the best iPhone and best Mac applications:
Best iPhone OS Applications
Enter your iPhone OS app and gain the recognition of your peers as you take center stage to showcase your best work.
Awards will be presented to:
- Up to four winners who have designed applications using iPhone SDK for iPhone SDK 2.2.1 (applications must be released versions and available on the App Store).
- One winner who has designed an application using iPhone OS 3.0 beta (application must be a pre-release version)
- One student winner who has designed an application using iPhone SDK for iPhone SDK 2.2.1 (application must be a released version and available on the App Store).
Best Mac OS X Applications

Awards will be presented to:
- Up to four winners who have designed applications using Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard (applications must be released versions).
- One winner who has designed an application using Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard (application must be a pre-release version).

Yes, you read it correctly, there will ba an award dedicated to an application developed for Snow Leopard, the forth coming Mac OS X only available for developers!
As usual, the price is composed of a nice package:
Great Software Deserves Great Prizes
Winners will receive two 15-inch MacBook Pros (best configuration), two 30-inch Apple Cinema Displays, two 16GB iPhone 3Gs, two 16GB iPod touch, an ADC 2009 Premier Membership, and reimbursement of their WWDC 2009 E-ticket.
Student category winners will receive one 15-inch MacBook Pro, one 30-inch Apple Cinema Display, one 16GB iPod touch, one 8GB iPhone 3G, one ADC 2009 Student Membership, and reimbursement of their WWDC 2009 E-ticket.
Entries will be accepted beginning Thursday, April 2 and ending at 5PM (PST) Monday, May 4, 2009.
Be the first to submit, we all benefit of having ground-breaking applications awarded. Let's hope the selection board will pick some cherries among the growing numbers of Mac and iPhone applications based on the GUI and user experience, and not according to some dark rules as those granting access to the iPhone AppStore.

It's time to come and hang out where everybody knows your name, or at least your Talkshoe handle: the TUAW talkcast is back tonight after a week's hiatus (we're all feeling much better, thanks ever so). Join us at 10 pm ET tonight for a roundtable discussion (including your questions, comments, and rants) covering the Apple news of the week -- including the range of naysayers going after the Apple brand with gusto.
To participate on TalkShoe, you can use the browser-only client, or you can try out the classic TalkShoe Pro Java client; however, for maximum fun, you should call in.
