With Apple’s App Store a runaway success, it’s a bit surprising to see that Palm hasn’t offered paid apps internationally on its App Catalog, until now. The App Catalog will be offering Paid Apps in Europe, Canada and Mexico on March 31st, which is just around the corner. Apps submitted for use in the U.S., Canada and Mexico will receive payment in U.S. Dollars, while apps submitted for Germany, Spain, Ireland and the UK will receive payment in Euros. Palm’s Developer Relations Team is apparently on standby to expedite the review process for universal submissions. They certainly wouldn’t want app submissions to end up like Opera’s App Store submission.

It looks like Motorola isn’t going to be the only one offering alternative Android stores. It seems that Sony Ericsson and General Mobile are additionally preparing to come up with Android stores of their own. Sony Ericsson has announced that they will be accepting submissions of apps and games for Android devices, which seems like good preparation for its upcoming Android-powered XPERIA X10 handset. General Mobile is already working on Storeoid, which is its own version of an Android app store. How will that affect the Android Market and Apple’s AppStore? Let’s keep an eye on how things will develop in 2010, shall we?
