CheckUpdates 1.0 is a new utility to detect new versions of your applications. It’s a Universal Binary app so runs natively on both PowerPC and Intel Macs.
CheckUpdates was designed to inform you of any new version of applications, installed or not on your disk. It regularly checks on web sites for new versions of the listed applications. When a new version is detected, the menu blinks and list the application(s) with a new version. Selecting an application in the menu brings you at its web page.
CheckUpdates creates a list of the applications installed in the Applications folder in your disk, and compares the versions of these applications with the latest versions found. It’s free for the surveillance of the products distributed by Tri-Edre (who makes CheckUpdates). Otherwise the cost is US$10. CheckUpdates works with Mac OS X 10.3 and higher.
