    So far I've downloaded Menu Pop and Telling Folders. I've got my eye on Music Player X.

    Anyone else?

    The store is missing a few great apps though e.g. Scrivener.

    Nothing much. Twitter and Evernote and that's about it. I keep checking it every day but the pickings are pretty slim at the moment.

    All I got was caffeine. It puts a wee cup of coffee in the menu bar and clicking it prevents your mac from going to sleep. Quite useful.

    Twitter just cos it was there while I was checking it out, havent opened the app store since.

    Will be buying the beginners chinese (also just caught my eye) next year when I have time to learn.

    I already had a good few of the apps (Caffeine, Ejector, Alarm Clock, etc). The Twitter app is quite handy. Nothing else has grabbed my attention so far though. I tried a lot of the organisation apps (evernote, etc) but found them a bit useless, or something I'll have to pay for in the long run. Meh.

    I downloaded Hedgewars, a freeware version of Worms 3 for the laugh. It's alright.

    I guess it'll be another while before there's some really well thought out apps for it.

    Just Twitter.

    Might make some purchases when some more games are added.

    Haven't even launched the App Store.

    Moved some of the free apps I had to it for ease of management as much as anything else.

    Twitter, Evernote, Alfred, Kindle, MindNode and the brilliant Soulver.

    Caffeine & Hedgewars

    Twitter, evernote, chopper 2, Alfred. I really like it as a method of software delivery.

    Solar Walk for Mac and Coversutra.

    I have around $25 in an iTunes account for the last 7 months or so that I never spend on anything, so decided to buy these two to give the Mac App Store a go.

    Solar Walk looks very interesting if limited, and has a lovely UI.

    Coversutra, although and old app, has never been as cheap and is a great add on for your tunes collection.

    jaysis, 25 dollars for soulver? Outrageous!

    I might search around later next month, or do it myself, and compile a list of what apps I have and use and whats in the store.

    Because if everything or even 75% of what I use is on it - it will make switching over macs or re-installing that bit easier.

    If only there was a way it could store dock and layout settings and extensions in browsers installed through it - although this is ideally what that apple data farm is for.

    Soulver, from a quick look at it, only does what I can do straight from chromes google bar / spotlight / my head or all though quicksilver?
