Palm’s App Catalog is growing by a trickle rather than a flood, but any new apps for the masses are more than welcome. Case in point, two new apps have appeared for your downloading pleasure: Blackout from Uberu, a lights out style of game, and Spades from Bytesequencing, a version of the classic card game. [...]
Everything Palm Pre, We Feed You!
Echo, apps, blackout, news, spades

Palm’s waited until a quiet Friday afternoon to add a few more apps to their catalog: Blackout, Spades, and Echo.
Blackout is a version of Lightsout, a puzzle game where you try to clear out lights on a board (yep, similar to the Homebrew app, Lights Out).
Spades, as you may have guessed, is the card game and is ad supported.
Finally, Echo is Chapura’s new solution for syncing your Palm Pre with Palm’s own Palm Desktop software. It works over WiFi and is Windows-only (sadly). It’s a 7-day trial, after which you’ll be dropping a relatively hefty $29.95. If you’re still in love with Palm Desktop (hey, we don’t judge here …much), this is your long-awaited solution. You’ll need to grab the desktop component
We’re happy to see new apps in the App Catalog, but we’ll be happier when they’re coming so fast and furious that they don’t even merit comment.
Thanks to Ryan and hparsons for the tip!
