Calling all student developers in the US. College students. High school students. Heck even elementary student engineering whizzes.

Nokia Developer and Microsoft want to give you a flashy new Nokia Lumia 800 in exchange for two cool apps.

Here’s how it works. Any student developer who publishes two qualifying apps to the Windows Phone Marketplace between now and May 31 will get a free Nokia Lumia 800.

No strings, pretty simple. This is way sweeter than saving up to buy a new device, so what are you waiting for? Ready.Set () {Code}.

To see the full offer visit the Microsoft Tech Student facebook page.

You need to submit an entry via the offer form to be eligible to receive your Lumia 800. Official rules can be found here.

To qualify each app must:

·         Use Windows Phone 7.5

·         Be published to Marketplace for the first time during the Publishing Period

·         Perform as described

·         Implement Fast App Switching

·         Not be created using a prebuilt app framework (e.g., AppMakr, FollowMyFeed etc.) MSDN code samples and VS starter kits are eligible app starting points.

·         Students who have previously received a Windows Phone in one of our promotions for development of new apps in 2012 are not eligible to receive a device in this promotion — as determined by a previous delivery address, or a previously winning App Hub ID number or publisher.

We are always looking for new, innovative apps to showcase at our events and on Nokia Developer. If your app is hot enough we may even ask you to join us at one of our programs. In the meantime make sure you come see us when we are in your city at one of our hacks, Mobile Monday events or other developer programs.
