http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/4jan10oib3422987u.jpg (http://pdnblog.palm.com/2010/01/paid-applications-coming-to-webos-in-europe/)Okay, so this is quite the lag from October's North American availability (http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/05/paid-apps-now-live-in-webos-app-catalog-air-hockey-comes-first/), but at least when the paid portion of Palm's App Catalog rolls out across Europe it shouldn't experience the stuttering start (http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/06/palm-pulls-paid-apps-due-to-major-bug-allowing-free-app-download/) it suffered back in the US of A. Palm has excitedly blurted out the news on its developer network blog, but not without the requisite garnishings of buzzwords like "leverage," "freedom," "choice," "control," and "speed," as well as something about "faster cycle times" -- all of it designed to get more developers onboard. Kinda ironic the company is boasting about fast cycle times when it can't transition its paid Catalog to Europe in less than six months, but hey -- the Pre already has that one killer app (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/01/engadget-now-available-for-pre-and-pixi-the-first-webos-app-of/), and it's free, so what do you care?
