I don't remember the dev, sorry. No wifi to check App World but I bought the full version. It's a beautiful app.
Thanks for the screenshot. I didn't buy this when it first came out because it kept scrambling the columns of cards. I remember that there was an update to the free version but the only change was a persistent, in-your-face nag screen - so I deleted it. I guess there's been an update. Good news because I liked the app (other than the marketing method).
My top 10 although I have a few more I use regularly..
Slacker Radio
BlackBerry Bridge (does this count?)
My File Manager
Files & Folder (what my file manager lacks, this makes up vice versus)
CrackBerry
My Expense
Nexus (easy file sharing between PB's, just started using and really loving it, multiple PB's in our house)
Cineplex
Angry Birds
Air Attack
SimpleBrowser (Edit: Not native)
Dukto
Scrapbook
Email
Snowshoe Browser
Splashtop
Files & Folders (Edit: Not native)
ReQognise :P
Video Player (Edit: Not native)
Android Player
send to PC (move files to PC)
print (print from PB from PC)
my file manager
groovy notes (great memo pad)
workout timer (Tabata, crossfit,etc)
touchup pro (good photo edit)
photo note ( make minor marks on photos)
tweetbook (great twitter app)
note smartly ( photos, and videos in your notes- needs better UI)
the converter ( good converter)
i use all of these regularly. the native calendar, email, bridge everything, and browser get the bulk of the use though.

I second the mention about Evernote, only in my case, I can't recommend the native app once I've tried the ported Android version. Hope they match versions soon.
Not to derail the OP and if anyone can PM the answers, I would really appreciate it:
1. Does TweetBook remember last position? This is the most important feature for me.
2. How good is Groovy Notes? I've been on the fence about it for some time now.

Groovy Notes
Backgammon Free (a sadly neglected area of the games section, this is the best of a poor choice, plays ok but looks a bit basic)
Solar/Exoplanet explorers (technically 2 apps)
What's Up
Video chat (use to talk to my other half and some friends)
Blaq (awesome twitter client... I love how it can bookmark the last tweet you read so you can just carry on reading from where you left off)
Remote Desktop (native RDP client so can remote desktop in to any machine I have credentials for)
Evernote (this was a good app until the point OS2 was released. Evernote don't actually care that their app has been broken for nearly two months... oh well)
Battery Guru (good battery health monitoring application)
Nobex Radio (good radio app, has some good UK stations)
Files & Folders (file system browser)
SketchWFriends (Play this with my other half online... I wish the developers actually fixed the more critical bugs though)
BlueBox (access my Dropbox via this client... nice and easy to use)
Run In Crowd (jumpy game - play with my other half online)
Asphalt 6 (racing game - play with my other half online)

Tweetbook- not really a super tweeter, but i do do a good bit of scrolling while looking at tweets. The big sell is the browser view of url's in the app itself. Posting pictures is easy as well.
Groovy notes- i still use the bridge memo pad, but i am slowly moving towards groovy more and more. The ability to search for notes by date, and the custom tab/catagorie set up makes organizing the different notes a breeze. I put it off as well, but now i wish i had got it sooner. I am in the process of tranfering all my memo's over to it by cut and paste.
I use mProductive on my bb which keeps me organized, and groovy notes doest that well for my notes at least on my pb. If mProductive came to pb, i would immediatly buy it.
