Intel Launches Its App Store For Moblin

Intel has today announced its AppUp store is now available to those running Moblin 2.1. AppUp was announced back in January during the Consumer Electronics Show as a software application store designed for netbook users running Windows and Linux. Nearly three months later. AppUp for Moblin 2.1 is now available. This initial AppUp launch is limited to the United States and Canada, but next week some 27 countries within Europe should have access too.

AppUp offers software for Atom netbooks ranging from banking utilities to the popular XBMC-based Boxee application. Hundreds of applications are reportedly available via this Intel store.

Intel AppUp will be available for MeeGo -- the new Intel Moblin and Nokia Maemo collaborative project -- once its inaugural release is available in the near future.

The AppUp Center is available for download from Intel's web-site.
