Everybody panic! IDG is reporting that MS might charge users who send 5 or more mobile apps to the Microsoft Mobile App Bazaar in one year or update their apps too often. Why? Maybe the depression?

For $99 you can submit five applications per year. However, it seems that if you update an app and/or upload a new app over the limit you could be charged. This, presumably, will improve the quality of apps, ensuring sucky houses can’t submit 15 fart apps per year.
