I personally think that the folks at MobiHand’s are one of the very few ESDs which will be able to survive on the long run – they consistently seek out loopholes and blank spots in the market which they then fill with usually great success. Their latest exploit is below:
Yes – you are correct. MobiHand has ganged up with MotionApps on the creation of a “certified” store which sells applications for the Palm Pre’s Classic environment. But let’s lewt them do the talking:
…
MobiHand has been working closely with MotionApps to develop a Classic catalog and we are now prepared to launch this new catalog. We have already enabled the Palm Pre in your co-branded store. To see the catalog of Palm apps that have been identified to operate in Classic, go to:
http://www.mobihand.com/tamspalm/platformMain.asp?deviceid=1055
Some of these apps have been certified (i.e. “signed”) by MotionApps while others have only been tested and are known to work properly in Classic. More apps will be added to the catalog every week as they are tested and/or certified. Here are two examples — note that a special message is displayed at the top of these product details pages to inform users about Classic.
Once again: the TamsShop now sells Classic-certified apps. Hit the link below for the list – and don’t forget to look at the image above for a nice discount:
