App Store Deals
Looking for some last second App Store deals? Here are some bargains that have been sent in by their developers.
SuperPong
Strictly speaking, SuperPong isn't a "deal" so much as a "get it while you can". The developer, Jazon Burnell has been C&D'd by Atari so if you want to buy SuperPong, you need to act quickly. SuperPong costs $2.99 until it is pulled from AppStore.
Fairway
Fairway, which normally retails for $10, will be selling for $4.99 for this weekend only. Check the price before you add it to the cart because it's still showing up as $9.99 for me. Fairway is a golf management system. I suspect you'd have to know and love golf in order to appreciate this app. I am not a golfer.
Laser Battle
Laser Battle is on sale for $0.99 until Monday. It offers a light-saber battle game for one or two players.
Dictaphone and Note Pad
Dictaphone is a voice recording application from Polar Bear Farms. Note Pad provides a Notes replacement app. Both are on sale until September 26. Dictaphone will cost $0.99 (normally $1.99) and Note Pad $1.99 (normally $2.99) until that time.
Earthscape
Normally $4.99, Earthscape is free for a limited time. It provides a virtual globe application that allows you to "explore the Earth in 3D."

Jugaari's Jaadu VNC application is having a 12-hour sale. The price of the app is normally $24.99 but until about 12 noon Eastern time, the app will only cost $4.99.

SuperPong 2 from Spiffyware is now called SuperBall 2. Lets hope that will do the trick in avoiding copyright infringements

That's just photoshopped on there. Most websites protect their images with a watermark of some sort, this one is just unobtrusive.

I just got an email billing me £0.00 for a free app. Kinda pointless really...

Not really, if the app at some point goes non free for example, it means it's on record that you own it.

Ohh, clever :)

Jaduu VNC says if you re-download the app or an update you will be charged the difference in price!!! Sneaky sneaky. I didn't think they could do that!

I have the same problem with Jaadu VNC. "This item is currently being modified. Please try again later."

I've created an automated script that tracks when things go down in price. You can see the output, posted daily here:
