We start off another week with a trio of deals for Apple fans. First up is the latest batch of free applications from the App for your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad, including “Catch the Egg”, an accelerometer-based game. Next we have Montage for the Mac, software enabling you to potentially write the next killer screenplay. Finally, no one can have enough storage. One option might be the Fantom G-Force 1TB eSATA/USB 2.0 hard drive.
Details on these and many other bargains are available on CoM’s “Daily Deals” page right after the jump.
Below are downloads of several free applications available for a limited time from Apple’s App Store, with price drops from $1 to $5. These apps are created for the iPhone and iPod touch, and are compatible with the iPad but will run at a significantly lower resolution. (Check the individual apps for further information.) The apps:

BloodStream Raiders: Action adventure game
Marine Sharpshooter: First-person shooter
