Palm’s Paid Apps for webOS Devices to Kick In [Paid App Service for webOS Ready to Launch, Maybe Today]

Tweet

Just days after getting the new webOS 1.2 on the market, Palm is at it again announcing that the company is ready to roll out the much craved for paid app service for webOS devices. On top of that (yes things get even better) Palm users are not going to have to wait for the App Catalog, because the first batch of paid applications are expected to kick in, today, October 2nd.

Other than being quick on the release, the new paid apps are also appealing as they’re being directly connected to your Palm profile, meaning that you can buy an application now, delete it later and re-download whenever you feel like, for free.

The same happens when you switch to a new webOS device like Palm Pre or Palm Pixi — all you need to do is sign into your account and get all your apps at no extra charge.

With the recently released webOS 1.2 coming with improved e-mail filter options, the possibility to copy-paste web pages, calendar dialing and LinkedIn contact syncing, it’s only natural that the new webOS paid apps are going to take advantage of these all. Too bad, the new 1.2 update doesn’t bring the iTunes sync, eh?
