With the introduction of the Apple AppStore last year mobile applications has emerged as a wildly popular phenomena, with Apple reporting over half a billion downloads of apps to its iPhone in the first six months and the Mobie Awards is the first major Award established solely to honor excellence in mobile applications.

"We have receive thousands of nominations online for the best mobile applications and our judges of mobile industry professionals are reviewing all of them to find the best ones in over thirty categories," said Jonathan Sarno, founder of the six city iPhone Boot camps and executive producer of the Mobie Awards. "The Mobies recognize those who excel at taking advantage of all the added features mobile applications offer, such as location based services and game development using the accelerometer and the touch screen and we are only at the start of what is possible when faster and more robust graphic cards and more integrated HD video with motion sensors show up in the devices in the near future. It will be really exciting to see what apps developers come up in the next few years."

This year almost all the nominations were for iPhone apps but the awards are open to all mobile applications and with Google's Android, Microsoft, Palm, BlackBerry, HTC, and Nokia with Symbian and other device platforms opening app stores later this year competition among platforms for the best mobile applications should get really heated in the next eighteen months to two years."

To help promote achievement the Mobies provides its winners with the notable Mobie award plaque and an icon for the winners' websites or publications.
