Palm Pre Plus

So yesterday, after months of waiting I got my Palm Pre Plus.
Meanwhile cool! :)

But! I could not activate it without data service from my cellular provider. Ughm :(
So I purchased it. Most of the day I have some kind of internet connection around: either wired or wireless. The only time I don't have such, is when I'm driving, and I don't really need it - I should drive. So currently I have a feeling that I'm going to pay for something I'm not going to use...

Anyway, I purchased the data plan and activated my phone, and even managed to make/receive few calls.

But it has not Hebrew or Russian. Why?? Some internet search discovered the following guide.

Another problem: it seems that I cannot connect to App Catalog even for free apps. Why??! If you know how to solve it, please let me know...

Another problem: Skype doesn't support it... Well, it becomes really annoying now. I hoped that a new Palm Pre will replace the outdated Asus pocket-pc, but currently it doesn't :(

Actually currently my feeling is a sort of disappointment: I waited to get this gadget for a loooong time, and now it seems that it doesn't covers my very basic needs for some cool applications and Skype. May be I should have go for some cool HTC device with Android? Rhetorical question.

P.S. In these comments (Russian) you'll find another discussion.

Palm: Game of Life - Reading the Comments

Getting the data about the published application is somewhat annoying. From the developer's portal you can see the amount of downloads and the average user rating.
From the rss feed you can additionally see the number of comments, but you cannot read them.
Fortunately, http://www.myappbox.com shows the comments, once you find your application.

I don't know if there is any normal way to answer the user comments and I will be really surprised, if any of the users bumps into my blog, but currently I see no other way to post replies.

First, all the guys who said that the game is cool: thank you!!! It's really a pleasure to read your comments ;-)

Aaron B and Stanley T: you both mentioned that "Ability to save favorite initial conditions would be a great feature." I'm totally agree with you. Moreover, I developed it in a very first version and even mentioned it in "Help". Yes, it's on the last help's screen that talks about shortcuts.

Stanley T: "The builtin ability to share saved starting patterns would be very cool." Totally agree. I'll think about it :-)

Michael M: "Not playable at all on the Pixi due to the screen formatting. Please fix." What does this mean? Are cells too small? The cell's size is adjustable. Once again: reading "Help" may help.

Conway's Game of Life for PALM WebOS

And here comes my first WebOS application: Conway's Game of Life.
Actually I don't own palm myself and I developed it using emulator, so all of you, who own palm: please! please! please! Download it and see if it runs, how is your experience, and what are the bugs.

The project is open source at Google Code. You are welcome to report bugs.
