Rumor: All apps to be free at Pre launch

Posted on 28 May 2009 by WebOsArena
We haven’t heard too much about the Pre’s App Catalog, but our Sprint insider has just informed us that the App Catalog feature all free apps at launch. Furthermore, there will be a free demo available for every app. This is wonderful news to consumer’s ears, and seems to be yet another shot across Apple’s bow. Their App Store offers screenshots, but most apps don’t offer a trial which forces you to either rely on user reviews (which we’ve found less than helpful) or pay and pray. The free model is similar to what the Android Market did at launch, but with big name programs like SlingPlayer and Epocrates on board “at or near launch” we’re a bit more excited this time around.

I can confirm that those who applied for the Palm Mojo SDK stating that the app would be free got in quicker than the ones who wanted to build a paid app.
Great info, I’m a guy through Detroit that is about to take his very first genuine dive in to the Android, figuring it’s finest taken by getting the Samsung Fascinate. It is been a long wait, including ordering a HTC Desire and cancelling that due to receiving news regarding this phone, as well as in my small quest regarding details to move the time I ultimately found this wonderful site.
I like the helpful information you provide in your articles. I’ll bookmark your blog and check again here frequently. I am quite certain I will learn many new stuff right here! Best of luck for the next!
