Are you in the mood for new apps? Good, 'cause we got them! Yep, it is another day, and that means another batch of apps have landed in the Palm webOS App Catalog. And this time none of them seem to have come from an alternate dimension where the laws of space and time are ignored. Nay, they are all from our universe, so there's no need to call on Dr. Bishop and get his far-out input on the matter. By now you're getting tired of my rambling, so I'll just cut to the chase and point you to the space we call "after the break," which is where you will find the list of apps that make up the "new."

You do know you're eventually going to have to say "Here's the apps for today", right?!
On a side note, good to see more 3D GPU goodness making it's way into the catalog, only a month or two left till us GSM users get them though *Sigh*.
I REFUSE!
but you've tought about it havent you?
Every morning.
Nice Fringe mention, Derek! Can't wait for tonights epi.
Just searched my Palm's Ap Store and couldn't find the Google Search listed above by JM Productions. What am I missing?
I had same problem as jackmsw above. I searched for "Party Sign" and got 39 unrelated apps. Is catalog search broken?
I wish companies like Gameloft who already have a wide selection of games would have some sort of a system for voting which games we want for the Palm Pre. Then they can know the demand and we can get the games we want!
Funny, I've Dict.cc on my Pre since a couple of days now (Germany).
Well, not funny. There should in general only be one AppCat policy for 'worldwide distribution'. And if local restriction do not permit worldwide distribution, the app should be manually set to the respective countries. And not the other way around as of current.
