If you don't know what the app is called, and you don't know exactly what you're looking for (description: "games I could enjoy while stuck in the hospital" ... try searching on THAT!), how is the app available? > If you know the name of the app you're looking for, then you can find > anything in the market.

But now, you're saying basically what I was getting at---if you DON'T know the name of the app, and what you want is to browse through ALL of a given category (free games, in this case), you're up sh*t creek now, as those apps no longer exist. Fortunately, I checked on another site, and they have LOTS of listings. I'm going there now to find the games I didn't even know I was looking for. :-) Later, --jim -- 73 DE N5IAL (/4) MiSTie #49997 < Running FreeBSD 7.0 > [email protected] ICBM/Hurricane: 30.44406N 86.59909W Do not look into waveguide with remaining eye!
