The current bundle costs $US49.95 for software that would normally retail for over $US300, providing you order quickly enough to receive all three bonus programs.

The basic list comprises A Better Finder Rename, BluePhoneElite (turns a Mac into a Bluetooth hands-free device), Keyboard Maestro (keyboard macros), Letter Opener (Mail add-on to process winmail.dat attachments), MathMagic (equation editor), PrintIt! (print a portion of what's on the screen), TaskTime (time tracking), ViewIt (image viewer), and Web Confidential (password storage and automation).

The bonus applications are CosmoPod (download and convert online video for the iPod and other devices), DeepVacuum (web site downloader), and Fantasktik (window switching utility).

One program (MathMagic) usually sells for more than the price of the complete bundle, and there are several combinations of two programs that represent a saving.

The current offer apparently expires on August 23, with the first bonus application dropping out at the end of this week.

Then there's Italy-based MacWeed, which says it is donating 20 percent of its proceeds to the Italian Red Cross in support of those displaced by the recent earthquake in the Abruzzo region of Italy.

Another five percent is up for grabs via an affiliate marketing scheme.
