Sony's just launched the open beta for its Vita development programme PlayStation Suite.
Interested users can download an SDK and start creating software for Vita and other PlayStation-certified mobile devices. It's free during the open beta period, but once it ends you'll have to pay $99 a year to keep using it. That $99 fee also entitles you to sell anything you've created with the Suite.
This isn't the first time Sony's opened up its platforms to a wider development community — remember Net Yaroze? — but we can't wait to see what intriguing applications come to Vita from this open beta.

Let's hope it's more user-friendly than that nightmare of a dev kit Move.Me. Anyone else here try and develop using that? I'm not an expert on programming with TCP/UDP but I couldn't get anything to work correctly.
I hope they do this correctly. Suite has the potential to be the go-to gaming platform on Android devices, but, like Nathan says, it needs to be user-friendly from both a developer stance and a consumer one.
