love the chuck norris app. I've been waiting for that one.

It is pretty funny, but I would like an option to only see the ones without the cursing/overly suggestive ones. I know they are funny too, but not everyone's cup of tea...of course, Chuck probably doesn't drink tea!

Anyway, you know how you can set Google search to a moderate and/or strict search to leave out certain content? It allows for more choice by the people who use google. I like that feature, you have the freedom to restrict more or less what content comes through. And some games have a violence/blood setting to reduce the level of gore (Hero of Sparta has this). I like having that choice. It's not something everyone will use, but I would.

I love "Superman owns a pair of Chuck Norris Pajamas" and "Death once had a near-Chuck-Norris experience", but my favorite is the night-light one! Thank you Chuck Norris for standing in the gap!

Is iWebOS an iPhone theme? Or does is it just an app that looks like an iPhone screen that launches other apps?

The latter.

iTunes Search?

I suppose Palm isn't really in the digital distribution business, but still, isn't an iTunes song in a format that webOS can't even read?

iTunes music is distributed in DRM-free AAC files, webOS can read them just fine.

There are quiet a few games going on for Pickup Sports in Los Angeles area. Its a really helpful tool to get more health =)
