Carnation Software (http://www.carnationsoftware.com) says Icon Pallet 2.0, its program and document launcher for Mac OS X, is now available in the Mac App Store. With Icon Pallet, you can switch between apps, launch documents and folder items.

Drag files, folders and documents to the pallet, and they’ll aways be there for you. Designed to complement your OS X Dock, Icon Pallet keeps your icons in the same location, and at the same size, no matter how many you add (well, up to 600).

Icon Pallet stores the link to your folders, apps and documents, for launch and access with a single click. You can organize your programs, files and folders on an expandable pallet instead of cluttering your desktop with icons or squeezing them onto a crowded dock. You can add names and colors to your folder icons, making it easier to recognize them on your Icon Pallet without having to roll the mouse over the folder icon to see the full name.

Icon Pallet 2.0 requires Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later. It costs US$4.99 and is available exclusively through the Mac App Store in the Productivity category.
