Finally, Timepiece has been updated!

So, Verizon, where's our Palm Pre+ Update?

Posted by jabonky on Wed, 08 Sep 2010 10:17 am EDT

Would be nice to get some of these apps but alas I still do not have 1.4.5 yet. :( BUt I am very excited for all the positive news coming out for webOS.

wow that is really cool. I still want to see the App catalog hit 5000 by december

Posted by Cringer on Wed, 08 Sep 2010 10:31 am EDT

One butt-kicking update for Notes should be the headline here.

Posted by nhavar on Wed, 08 Sep 2010 10:52 am EDT

One thing I missed from my iPod was Koi Pond. Going to check out Ancient Pond and see

Still nothing from Laminar Research. I wish them nothing but misfortune in their professional and private lives.

Ancient Pond sounds cool. In fact, a lot of these sound cool. Sadly, since Verizon sucks I can't use many of them.

for those of you with sports live (the multi-sport version of baseball live, etc) the new update comes with college football live built in! Nice addition to an improving app.

btw I am not the dev and get nothing from them, and I paid for the app during 50% sale

Thanks for the plug!

Okay, noob question here. I'm seeing all these new apps here, but not when I check out the App Catalog on my phone. Is this because I'm still stuck on 1.4.2 w/ ATT?

Posted by Orion Antares on Wed, 08 Sep 2010 3:17 pm EDT

Yep. Same thing with Verizon Pre+ owners.

Posted by protofa on Wed, 08 Sep 2010 9:52 pm EDT

i can't find many of these apps in the catalog. was wondering the same thing about not having 1.4.5. thanks for the info.

Derek,

I do like this feature of Precentral and scroll through it every time it comes out, just to see if there is anything interesting.

But it could be better and more useful. I renew my request: PLEASE will you organize the list by vendor? Here is an example of how I would like to see it look:

New from Appible:
- Culinary Herbs, $0.99, by Learn all about herbs.
- Good Things to Eat, $0.99, A collection of foods that are good for you.

Appible has also updated:
- 365 Foreign Dishes, $0.99

...and so on.

This would make this great Precentral feature even better, and so much easier for the reader.

Thanks!

Yuck, some of these interesting apps are for 1.4.5 only like ancient pond (sounds like a fun app). Verizon, get your butt in gear.
