Wow!  The powers that be at the Palm Pre App catalog are really ramping up for this month’s official launch of the store.  Today saw the largest release of apps since the Pre was released in June.  And I am sure the selection will only continue to grow as the official launch gets closer (I know several developers have been asked to move their homebrew apps to the App Catalog, so congrats to them).  Released to the App Catalog today were:

• DirecTV NFL: Watch any NFL game from anywhere in the United States.  Requires the NFL SuperFan subscription.
• Tip ‘Em! – Tip Calculator and check Splitter
• Translator: Translates between 45 different languages using the Google Translate tool
• The Globe and Mail: Bringing News of Canada to the Palm Pre
• TMaps – DC: a map of DC area buses and trains (which inexplicably left out the Virginia Railway Express)
• Express Horoscopes
• wikiHow: A wiki-based how to guidebook
• Dumb Waiter: Because you can never have too many tip calculators
• Zilch Lite: A dice game
• Photo Dialer
• UberPass: Secure information manager and password generator
• Lemonade: The classic game of building a business makes its way to the Palm Pre
• Coin Flip: Heads or tails…you choose.

Despite all of these new releases, there are still a few noticeable omissions.  Chief among them are any kind of RSS feed reader (preferably one that can sync with GReader) and a task manager which can sync with Toodledo.  Hopefully those will be joining the current 50 apps in the App Catalog soon.
