4 New Apps with Official Bell Palm Pre Launch in Canada
Palm Pre is now officially shipping in Canada on Bell, did you get yours? [Send in your photos of your quest for a Bell Pre.] With the launch, Palm has also released 4 new apps on the App Catalog, one specifically made for the Canadians.
The first one is Yelp, if you don't use Yelp, use it. It looks for your local bas, gas station, doctors, whatever.
Yahtzee Demo, a demo game mostly involving rolling a dice to play. But it's actually pretty cool.
Tetris Mania Demo, need I say more?
And lastly, The Canadian, news from the Canadian Press right on your Pre. Available in english and French.
*Unpauses Tetris Mania*

Wow......tetris......woopie.....
how bout some useful apps? facebook?......
and Yelp was already in the Where app.....it blows anyway. The nav app is better for finding destinations, and more up to date.
Concerning Yelp, I'm not impressed at all. Not much more offered than what is seen on Where app. In addition they don't allow for you to log on to your account and add reviews and update locations! This is woefully needed in my town as a lot of the places listed on my Yelp locations are either out of business or moved. DELETED.
I'm surprised you were able to do much with the Tetris demo. It looks nice, but the tiny window of time they let you demo the product is annoying.
I agree with @Adam. I've been mum about Facebook on the Palm Pre, but one of the first questions I get asked is "does that have a Facebook app like on the iPhone." People actually use this as a CRITERIA for buying a phone... (sigh)
@Philip
Yeah, did you play tetris for 30 seconds, pause it to write this post, then play for the remaining 30 seconds you are allowed?
