I don't want to be a party pooper, I do love new apps! However, I would like to hear some different good news from Palm. here are some examples.

1. Flash is here
2. WebOS 2.0 is here
3. Palm Pre 2 is going to be out next month and will be available on all our current networks
4. Tablets will be out for Black Friday sales


just to name a few

I'd be happy if they'd just fart in our direction so we can get a whiff of something.

The last announcement they made about webOS 2.0 was saying it might be out as early as October but should be out before year end. It's not October yet so you're being a little over eager on 2.0.

They've already said tablets won't be out until early 2011 but we could still hope for Palm Pre 2 making it out by Black Friday since they haven't said anything about that.

It'd be nice if they said what was holding up Flash, if it's still being revised or if it's just sitting in limbo. I know Adobe said they submitted a Flash build but that doesn't mean it wasn't sent back after that statement for revisions.

I would like an INTERNATIONAL APP CAT'

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!
