Palm adds two new apps for the Pre

Late last night Palm released two new apps for their catalog. Nothing earth shattering but could this be the beginning of the flood? Palm released their SDK to the public not to long ago and we have endured weeks of no new application additions. The WebOS homebrew community has been hard at work developing a bunch of new apps. These apps give a good look into what developers are working on for the official catalog. You can find out more about homebrew apps on the PreCentral.net forums.

The two new apps are called OpenTable and Fliq Bookmarks. OpenTable allows you to book reservations at popular restaurants close to your location. Fliq Bookmarks works in conjunction with The Missing Sync and moves your Safari bookmarks from you Mac to your Pre. Available now and on the App Catalog.

I have noticed that when I open the App Catalog on the Pre it takes a minute or two to load up and fill in the apps. I would hope that Palm is trying to beef up their back-end network before they release the flood gates. When you have more apps in the catalog, more people will be hitting their network and the longer it will take for people to load the App Catalog.
