New in the App Catalog for 14 November 2009

November 15th 2009 | Posted by Derek Kessler

App CatalogWith the weekend’s webOS 1.3.1 update came a whole slew of apps updated to match. Several new apps, including the much-awaited Facebook app, were included in the app drop, which was more reminiscent of carpet bombing than a precision strike. Yeah, there are that many updates. So many that the list extended off my computer screen, spilled over the edge of my desk, and splattered all over the floor. It’s a mess, and all it’s waiting for you after the break.

Palm’s App Catalog gets two new games

August 17th 2009 | Posted by Brian Hart

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. [...]

New Additions to the App Catalog: Blackout, Spades, and Echo

August 14th 2009 | Posted by Dieter Bohn

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!
