Good news about signing. I suppose the store itself somehow signs things? Code signing certificates are prohibitively expensive for small developers at around $500.

You can get them for under $100 a year from some resellers. I got mine from here http://codesigning.ksoftware.net/

$84 a year, and as low as $67 a year if you go multi-year.

You upload an .appx with an associated unique identity (allocated via the Windows Dev Center) and Microsoft manages the signing and such on their end.

And you give 30% cut from revenue. Nice played.
