Posted by Tyrelian on Thu, 18 Feb 2010 9:23 am EST

I think that were are going to see flood of apps on the way with web OS 1.4, developers are waiting to unleash all their hardwork with these apps

Derek, you didn't mention that the App Catalog is 4 app's away from 1500. That could easily be surpassed tomorrow.

Posted by Derek Kessler on Thu, 18 Feb 2010 9:42 am EST

Whoa! Didn't get much sleep last night and I completely missed that. Rock on!

Posted by fastamx79 on Thu, 18 Feb 2010 10:24 am EST

As of 8:20am CDT the App store is 2 away from 1500!!

Posted by jordo487 on Thu, 18 Feb 2010 10:59 am EST

App store at officially 1500! YAY! We are slowly making a move up! :)

Although webOS isn't getting much love from the big app makers, (Audible, eReader, DocsToGo-Dataviz, Bank of America,
Vonage, to name a few), we do seem to be getting some very capable, well written, robust and useful apps, from plenty of good, (smaller), developers. ...and it seems I've bought most of 'em.

Hopefully, their hard work will help keep the Pre and webOS from falling out of the "spotlight", long enough to allow Palm to sell enough phones so it's worthwhile for the "big-guys" to develop apps for.

Thanks to all the developers who are working hard to create these apps - literally, Palm's life-line to the future.

+1 very well put. I agree... Fire up that marketing campaign palm

Posted by gre21 on Thu, 18 Feb 2010 10:07 am EST

Any word on the precentral application?

Posted by DanPLC on Thu, 18 Feb 2010 10:24 am EST

For the GeoStrings trial, the trial period for people in the U.S. is 10 days as stated in the article; however for people outside of the U.S. it has been extended to 45 days so they can use the app until April when hopefully paid apps are available.

derek, one of these days your going to have to say, "here are the new apps:"

Posted by trist4n on Thu, 18 Feb 2010 12:33 pm EST

These Appible book applications just seem a waste of time to me. 'Pride and Prejudice' and 'Through the Looking Glass'are freely available elsewhere. If you are interested in reading books on your Pre, I recommend downloading the FREE eBooks by Kobo application, once you have that you can browse FREE titles to read on your phone... you will find 'Pride and Prejudice' and 'Through the Looking Glass' for FREE on Kobo.

500 more apps and Palm can start claiming they have thousands of apps to download, just like andriod.

Still missing a Sling Player for the Pre! Slingbox Pro collecting dust...

Thank You for the Updates Derek/pre|central. Keep up the great job!

Bring on 1.4 WEW!!!

Posted by blackmagic01 on Thu, 18 Feb 2010 4:29 pm EST

meh

Posted by ThUmPeR75 on Thu, 18 Feb 2010 11:45 pm EST

I`m being lazy so that`s why I`m asking here. Is the 1.4 update going to be available for "all" Palm Pre`s, or just the Plus models???? I already have Video recording with sound on my Palm Pre, but can`t "See" what I`m recording...lol. Is the 1.4 going to fix that???
