A thousand (and one incredible one) reasons to visit the App Catalog
Earlier this week, the App Catalog welcomed the 1,000th app optimized for HP TouchPad. (Of course, there are already thousands of compatible webOS apps, but these 1,000 apps have been developed specifically for TouchPad.) The app earning the honor of #1,000? Gun Bros, a free game from Glu Mobile.
And speaking of free, if you act quickly, you can also pick up a free copy of Incredible!, a social media swiss-army-knife of an app that's been getting, well, incredible reviews. Promo codes for the US, Canada, the UK, and Ireland are listed below (along with the usual disclaimers).
We know the available promo codes will go quickly -- so if you don't catch it ASAP, here are a couple of other free or low-cost ways to satisfy your app-etite:
Paper Mache: For Instapaper subscribers, this handy app lets you save web pages to read offline later, and optimizes them for better readability.
Paper Basketball: If your cubicle is too cramped (or too exposed) for the real thing, you don't have to give up the game -- just go virtual! Available in Free and Plus versions.
Rock-Paper-Scissors and Rock-Paper-Scissors-Lizard-Spock: Both support the "Big Bang Theory"-inspired twist on the classic. How to choose between them? Hmmm...you could always try rock/paper/scissors....
7digital MP3 Music: Not only does it give you access to a catalog of more than 14 million songs, but it has a new update that lets you listen to songs you've purchased on up to five different devices, including your PC as well as your TouchPad.
Once again, supplies are limited, and the promo codes expire at 11:59 AM on October 10 (or until the inventory is gone). And if you already have a promo code on your account, you may want to use that up before applying a new code.
Here are the codes you'll need in each country where this promo is available:
US: msmog32853nxxsp
Canada: nyyin38216ixtai
UK: xilgt13297ewhoe
Ireland: bfsdu68709wikef
And now for a word from our lawyers:
