And here are the prizes:

#1 most downloaded free app: $100,000
#1 highest revenue paid app: $100,000
#2 – #21 most downloaded paid apps: $10,000 each
#2 – #21 most downloaded free apps: $10,000 each

There are 2 categories, free and paid apps. And the top 221 apps from each categories will be rewarded. For WebOS developers, that’s something to look forward.
