Softening the blow that Apple struck yesterday, Palm has released its Mojo SDK for anybody to download. They'll start taking app submissions for the App Catalog from all developers in the fall.

That's later than we'd like—the sooner the Pre starts building a robust developer community, the more likely the platform is to thrive—but to be fair, we had to wait a whole year for iPhone apps. In the meantime, they've got a trickle of apps that'll be hitting the App Catalog to keep Pre owners sated (sorta). Coincidentally, Palm's App Catalog will be launch right around the same time as Window Mobile's, so we should be in for an app-y fall. [WebOSdev via Palm]
