The BlackBerry Partners Fund has officially announced this years BlackBerry Developer Challenge. Although the event doesn't take place until the 2011 BlackBerry Developer Conference gets under way in October, in San Francisco the prizes and timelines have all been outlined.
This year's Challenge includes the following three competitions:
- Best Adobe Flash®/AIR app
- Most Innovative BlackBerry WebWorks™ app on the BlackBerry PlayBook and BlackBerry 6
- Most Addictive social app using the BBM™ Social Platform
This year, both BlackBerry smartphone and BlackBerry PlayBook developers can enter their applications for a chance to win US$3 million in prizes. As always, winners will be chosen across four global regions - North America, Latin America, Europe/Middle East/Africa and Asia Pacific. If you're a developer and looking to learn more about the prize packs and how to enter, you can check out the BlackBerry Partners Fund website for the full details.

Notice how there are barely any comments here. There isn't even one of those lame "I'm first to post a comment" comments.
RIM please engage developers better. I don't know what it takes. I'm not saying what your doing isn't good. But I would like to see more activity on pages like this.
That would be a sign that somebody is building an app for my Blackberry phone and playbook.
