What a difference a day makes. As of yesterday, the biggest recent news from the webOS Internals<\/a> global team was the launch of Doom<\/a> and a video of a non-playable version of Quake. Today, there are three new announcements from webOS Internals:<\/p>\n First, Quake<\/a> is now playable<\/b>, with keymaps developed with help from user Jack87. As with the updated Doom, Quake launches through an icon rather than needing any typed commands in Terminal. The more complicated movements make Quake a bit more challenging to maneuver, but movement and sound work quite well. Both Quake and Doom are available via Preware<\/a>.<\/p>\n Second, on the webOSInternals YouTube channel<\/a>, the team has posted a video<\/a> of a demo OpenGL application (a triangle containing moving concentric circles) by bpadalino, further proof that Palm has enabled this graphic functionality in webOS 1.3.5, and hinting at upcoming gaming possibilities that are even further confirmed by…<\/p>\n The third announcement, via Rod Whitby’s PreCentral forum post this morning<\/a> where he details his discovery of a method for installing and running native Linux applications without the need for add-on services like webOSInternals’ own Upstart Manager Service. Rod points out that the ability to launch native Linux apps within webOS has implications well beyond gaming, in terms of advanced homebrew application development beyond that enabled by Palm’s current SDK. (PalmInfocenter posted a simpler explanation of what Rod and his colleagues discovered here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n Palm’s CES 2010 event<\/a> is scheduled for this coming Thursday, and based on what the webOSInternals folks are discovering literally every day, 2010 looks to be a very exciting time both for webOS developers and for the users who have benefitted from their innovation.<\/p>\n What a difference a day makes.
