New to the App Catalog, 17 May 2010 9

by Dieter Bohn Mon, 17 May 2010 9:18 am EDT

After Saturday's SSL Certificate expiration sent the App Catalog into a tailspin of failed installations (fixed within a day for most apps, though), we decided to take a little breather on listing the new apps. We're back, though, and here's what's new:

  • Snapperfish is back developing apps for Palm! The creators of my personal favorite PalmOS email client, SnapperMail have put together an app called The Best for My Child that's a intelligent mash-up of a parenting book into a mobile app complete with notifications. It's a little pricey even at the half-off intro price of $19.95, but a guide to actually understanding those tiny monsters children is probably worth the price.
  • Bell Mobility has created an account manager app for webOS
  • This App Does Nothing gets points for chutzpah for clocking in at $4.99
  • Rainy Mood offers ambient noise for free, because sometimes it's just too quiet to sleep.
  • goRPN looks like a solid RPN calculator that isn't too overwhelming for those new to the format.

All the rest after the break!

Guessing the Updates had to do with the certificate issue.

It is when Palm finally becomes part of HP.

Is anyone working on a RPN financial calculator? I'd love to have a webOS version of my HP 12C.

Maybe HP will :-)

I'm thinking of buying Best for My Child. It looks like it uses philosophies that we already use, but can often be forgotten in the heat of the moment. I wish it were a bit less pricey. I think it may be worth it, but given that it's twice as expensive (even with the discount) than most of the pricier apps out there, it does feel overly expensive, even if $20 really isn't that much in the scheme of things - and especially for something that could be this helpful in such an important area of our lives (if not THE most important)!
