Apple Thoughts: Apple Design Award Nominations Now Open

"Apple began accepting entries for its Apple Design Awards program, the company's program for recognizing what it considers excellent Mac and iPhone development. The ADAs are part of Apple's Developer Connection, and are awarded during the annual World Wide Developer Conference (WWDC), which takes place this year on June 8-12 at Moscone West in San Francisco."

There will be two major categories, one for the iPhone and one for OS X, with up to 4 winners each. Submissions are open now but will close on May 4th, so if you have something to submit, head on over to the WWDC '09 site and fill out the form. The prizes include 15-inch MacBook Pros, 30-inch Apple Cinema Displays, 16GB iPhone 3Gs, 16GB iPod touches, an Apple Developer Connection (ADC) 2009 Premier Membership, reimbursement of their 2009 WWDC E-ticket and a block of, well, something that is engraved.
