I'm amazed by so many decent apps. Does any one now if we will always be limited to 9 pages of Apps plus what we put on Delicious. I feel like I will need to carry a Itouch with me as well. Does any one know of a site that reviews a lot of the Apps, I know of the magazine ones but no Others. Thanks1 Marvelous site, I’m sorry I missed the last month. I’m amazed by so many decent apps.

Does any one know of a site that reviews a lot of the Apps, I know of the magazine ones but no Others.

Apple is in a tough position right now and people are accusing it either way. If all it takes is some "brains" to filter out the garbage in the App Store, then so be it. @John:

Because, let's face it, there's a hell of a lot of shite being pumped out for the AppStore. By my reckoning, a good 90% of the stuff in the feed is utter rubbish. Also, some apps are being promoted where they probably shouldn't. Take, for example, the 8 dollar wikipedia app which requires 2GB of drive space (that's one fricken huge download!) and which isn't affiliated with wikipedia!!! That's simply a scam. Then again, it's Apple's fault for allowing this sort of shite in the first place.

Great information, great interface. I'd like to see a simple comment system on each app's detail page so people can post reviews and tips, and hopefully an ability to SUBSCRIBE to an application, so I can be emailed when price changes and updates and comments happen. awesome!

My bet would be that the Laptop Event had things tied up in Cupertino. We dropped the price on Puzzoodle but it took over 24 hrs to show.
