The door’s open boys: the webOS SDK for the Palm Pre has just been made available online with Palm’s blessing. In few months, the Palm Pre App Catalog will be stocked to the rafters, so if you’ve got an idea for a pocket program, now’s the time to start work. Read on to find out how you can get in on the biggest gold rush since the iPhone App Store.
The Palm Pre is the first phone to run Palm’s swish new webOS operating system, which juggles programs in a way that the iPhone can only dream of, and now Palm is opening up the Mojo SDK beta for it beyond its own select partners. Anyone and everyone interested can give it a download. In other words, if you want to be the one to cash in on a Palm Pre equivalent of the iPhone Night Stand app, you’d better set up your stall right now.
It’s easy to dismiss the Palm Pre App Catalog as yet another App Store imitator, but the buzz around the phone (From our play with it, largely justified) means it could become a serious contender in the smartphone stakes. Palm says it’ll begin taking third party Palm Pre app submissions in the Autumn, so fingers crossed it’ll be landing in Europe fully loaded with new apps to keep your thumbs tapping away.
