Stupid.

I can't wait to get rid of my Treo.]]>Dec 16th 2008 9:30AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/12/16/palm-introduces-software-store-for-winmo-palm-os-devices/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/12/16/palm-introduces-software-store-for-winmo-palm-os-devices/Dec 16th 2008 12:41PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/12/16/palm-introduces-software-store-for-winmo-palm-os-devices/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/12/16/palm-introduces-software-store-for-winmo-palm-os-devices/
The email announcement clearly says that the "Software Store has GONE mobile" [emphasis mine], indicating that it previously was not mobile, but the Update says this is the "very same software store that has been around."

Further, while their butts are technically covered because the included instructions to "install the free mobile software store" doesn't say that it isn't just an internet shortcut, the intentional implication was that it was it's own application.

Lastly, what a horrible web store it is! Five apps per page means it will take 1,000 clicks + download time just to navigate the 5,000 advertised titles. Good thing the total viewable from my Sprint Centro numbers less than 500.

Creating postive spin on this announcement is embarrasing. The best that could be said is that it shows that the idea is at least on their minds and that they were still working on Nova and their new devices instead of expending effort on this.]]>Dec 22nd 2008 2:10PM
