On my WM Motorola Q9m, all I got was a link to a Palm-branded mobile Web site (and, presumably because I'm not using a real Palm device, the software displayed wasn't even exclusively for Windows Mobile). If the experience is the same on a Palm OS device, it's really an embarrassment. Why not just drop the link in my browser's Favorites and be done with it? Pfeh. Steve @Neil:

The application is nothing more than a link to a mobile site....A MOBILE SITE....wtf!!! This is like the direct opposite of Apple's App Store and makes even Handango's Inhand look like a great solution. I'm very disappointed in Palm as they normally do really good work, and a really good App Store would have been a great revenue source for them and some of the other handset makers might have been will to put on their own devices.
