Yes, it's the perennial debate. Should you place your bets on apps or the web? Which is better? Where will you make more money? Which do customers prefer? Do they even care? In what direction are we headed? Do we have to all bow at the altar of Jobs in order to make a meagre mobile buck?

These and more questions will be tackled at our upcoming debate on Monday 6 June sponsored by the lovely folks at BlackBerry. Venue is CBI at Centrepoint.

Our motion for the evening is 'this house believes that Apps are the new ringtones and have a limited shelf-life for long-term commercial gain'

Oh, and if anyone has a gavel they could lend us, that would be marvellous!

Registration will close at 10am on Sunday 5 June or whenever we're full - whichever comes first. Registration is required at http://momolo.org . All registration data will be shared with our sponsor BlackBerry.

Agenda:

Doors open at 6pm for a 6.30pm start

Each speaker gets 5 minutes to speak and 5 minutes for questions and discussion. Each team leader will have a few minutes to wrap up with their argument for or against the motion and then we will have an audience vote.

Networking and drinks from around 8pm.

Session closes at 9.30pm

The session will be introduced by Andy Tipton from BlackBerry, chaired by Leila Makki and speakers include Bryan Rieger from Yiibu (heading up Team Web), Cait Roberts from MePlease, Mauricio Reyes from Flirtomatic, Sam Machin from O2 (heading up Team Apps), Alex Watson from Dennis Publishing and Rebecca Pate from Tesco.
