Paid apps now live in webOS App Catalog, Air Hockey comes first

The first paid apps are finally starting to filter into Palm's App Catalog, giving us all another great reason (after our daily caffeine fix has been properly handled, of course) to blow a buck or two every day of our lives. First up is none other than Air Hockey, an app genre that seems to be taking every platform by storm -- we never really thought that the true Dynamo experience could translate well to a couple of fingers on a phone's display, but we're just $1.99 away from finding out for sure.

Wow, you had two tries at spelling "Acceleroto" and you were wrong both times.

So you have the impression that the designer of the phone and OS determines the price of the app? Brilliant.

Paid or free, Palm apps store is going to fail because after you download a small number of them you get a memory full notice. So even though my phone has more than 6 gb available memory, I am unable to download any more apps because of the way Palm programed the Pre with a very small amount of memory available for apps.
