It was very likely to happen, and now confirmed; the Palm App Catalog will launch June 6th. Yesterday at the New York Times all things digital conference, Palm announced the App Catalog will be launching in beta on the Palm Pre next week.
Palm will have just a dozen or so apps in the store when the Pre launches next week. The beta version will feature applications from developers such as AP News, Citysearch, Fandango, Pandora and uLocate.
Looking at the list of launching apps, it seems unlikely that the beta of the App Catalog will already offer billing. More details will follow next week when the Palm App Catalog joins the game.
