  • What ever happened to palm's excellent monthly view color coding? This was the most useful aspect of my Treo and Centro phones.

  • Thanks for uploading this great Palm Pre demo!

  • aw0me phone al0ng wid d vide0....... ;)

  • Fantastic interface and O/S with some pretty nifty gesture controls. It's good with competition.

  • whats up with this vid i mean they can put it in one vidieo it isent that hard u could do it on a crap cpu like mine

  • pre users

    w w w. PalmPreForum. org

  • Video is excellent. Not sure if this will be an iPhone killer, Apple has a hold of the market right now. However, some people will jump at the second version of the Palm Pre when Sprint has their 4G operating in more markets around the country. Thumbs up for me!

  • Oh and... A Real Keyboard? The iPhone has nothing on this. I HATE typing on my friend's iTouch which shows that when you give a phone to an inexperienced person, they shouldn't have difficulty in using it (I'm talking about telling your buddy to send the other guy a text when you're driving or something. Doing that with a "newbie" with a touchscreen sucks. ANY touchscreen, HTC Diamond, whatever, not just the iPhone's)

  • One time my phone got stolen and all I had to do was call Sprint and they activated my old phone, so easily. I would've lost my SIM card if my phone got stolen and been slightly more screwed

    SIM Cards have nothing on Sprint's service. Please, don't say crap about how they can take over your phone, how often does that happen?

    Technically speaking, it is an iPhone killer. Sales and "cool" factor wise? Never. Apple is just too strong now to be taken out.

    I'm leaving my Razr2 and getting the Pre

  • I love how people say Sprint sucks, I've had it for YEARS and I can tell you this. In Houston Texas, Sprint is THE Best provider. T-Mobile has had so many problems early on, but now has ironed most of em out, but is mostly for the "kids".

    AT&T tried ripping my mom off because she had their service and they had a complete overhaul where her minimum plan got raised and all this crap, she left and went to Sprint.

    Sprint also has great service. Activating a phone is SO easy.

  • This video is excellent!!

  • This video es excellent.

  • I masterbait to pics of this phone and when i get it Iam going to set it on vibrate and let it buzz my balls while I jerk offf

  • haha nice

  • I've been a long time fan of Palm smart devices and finally had given them up. They were sooo behind until now, this is just amazing. I won't call it the iphone killer though, iphone's got such a huge hold of the market but now buyers finally have a choice when they are shopping for the ultimate badass device. It won't be an easy choice either. I want the Pre for sure since it looks to be more useful for my business and personal needs.

  • Why do so many people actually want a slim phone?

    Doesn't it feel better in your hand when it has a bit of depth?

    (like the pre, i think it's going to feel really good)

    Just wondering...

  • Woah, the end of the iphone is truly here.

    I never thought id say this anytime son, but he palm pre's OS is simply beautiful, and more so than the iphone.

    I'm grabbing this with my life.

  • Trust me its not the iPhone killer. Thats what ppl said abou the blackberry storm and still iphone is on top and you have to remember that the new iPhone is comming out tbhis July or June anddd the 3.0 software is comming out so im not even worried that the pre will kill the iPhone. And plus Sprint sucks and theres not even that many people on it.. AT&T has way more people and its just its not going to kill it.

  • i gots dha centro now i wnt dht =D

  • This is the greatest thing I've ever seen. Simply stunning. Great work Palm!

  • bluth!!! hhahahahahah i love it!!

  • this phone is pretty much sexxx in my mouth

  • Reading all these comments is funny because all the iphone fanbois come out.

    Who cares if the ihpone "re-invented touch screen"? Palm invented smart phones. Does that matter 3 years later? Nope.

    The iphone is an amazing phone don't get me wrong but I do look forward to the day that someone does beat them (and the pre looks good enough to challenge them). Why? Because that means that apple and other companies have to step up their game to compete which means better features for me.

  • this kills the iphone in terms of how easily all of the features work, like the search feature and the feature where you can text different accounts all in the same conversation...awesome!!

  • I'm a happy owner of iPhone, but I must agree, Pre's UI completely kills it. I'm very amazed by new Palm!

  • Looks good. I see a distinct Appleness to the the Pre which is a good thing. Not surprising since Rubenstein designed it. I still somehow doubt Palm wican surpass the IPhone's huge appeal. It's not doing anything groundbreaking when compared to what Apple introduced a year earlier and we can expect a new iPhone out before the end of the year.

  • ITS DOES NOT USE SIMCARD

  • Pretty nice, if i didn't have the iphone this would definitely be my phone.

  • come and join the community

    w w w. everythingpre. info

  • i hope this phone uses sim card!!

  • no. it doesnt. its a sprint phone.

    no sprint phones use sims cards.

  • This is impressive stuff, if the battery life's half decent it will be the top dog imo

  • nice.... now, I will have to decide between this or the blackberry.

  • How man thats impossible the phone hasn't yet been checked by the fcc and theres a legal battle between them an apple for that gesture/shortcuts area plus the multitouch system.

  • to bad ur lieing cause its not out yet ANYWHERE EVEN EMPLOYEES CANT GET IT YET so i doubt someone that works at sprint would be able to its sad u have to lie over the internet

  • can i support windows live?

  • look at your penis...... Isnt it so small?

    Now go play with your blow up dolls and shut the fuck up ya mooseknuckle

  • im confused

    and fuck you ; )

  • genius... i'll definitely get one when it released here in the u.s. is it next month?

  • Thanks for this...may be considering purchasing two of them. Any word on the price?

  • this actually has alot more useful and thoughtful apps than iphone...

  • this actually beats the iphone in quite a few areas

  • agreed

  • what areas? name them

  • Multitasking, MMS, a2dp bluetooth, qwerty keypad, 3mp camera with flash compared to iphone's 2mp, "synergy" for contacts, calendar and IM, i believe copy and paste etc etc.

  • Hell yeah, i got the crapple iPhone and i will get this Palm Pre piece of sexyness as soon as it hits the stores.

  • Yeah if I had the crapple iPhone I think I would swith too. Check out the Apple iPhone and maybe you'll reconsider?

  • oh mister funny boy.

  • Give the designers some credit. It's not an iPhone clone any more than Windows was a clone of the old Mac OS. Sure, Windows stole a number of ideas from Mac but they innovated a lot too and THAT'S what is stunning about this phone. I've had more than half a dozen smartphones, each with it's own problems and for my own personal tastes, this kicks some major ass.

    Leave sprint out of it, Palm always releases their phones on other networks.

  • wow, wow, wow, this is what I call a smartphone, bye bye iphone!

  • Finaly, smth that really looks and works like cell phone is supposed to work. Without any BS applications. I like the keypad. I dont like touch screen keypads. Hopefully they ll make a GSM version. Good job Palm.

  • sprint's service does suck but they have good plans and prices

  • Sprint has roaming agreements with Verizon. If you don't have sprint service, you would have Verizon's. Whats not to love about that?

  • no it def doesnt. ive had sprint years now and i must say ive lost service like one in those years. ONCE.

  • Yes, it has video playback but NO VIDEO CAPTURE. I know Sprint is less expensive, but there's a reason for that, including the worst attitude in the business towards their customers. Believe me, the Pre sounds like the almost perfect solution, but for me, not as long as Sprint is the only option.

  • palm said they wud release a gsm version soon so u shud be able to use it with at&t or t-mobile (or all european carriers for that matter)

  • I´d like to see this one in Europe too.

    If the price is right, it is going to replace my Nokia N95 8GB ;)

  • Well, I was looking at the HTC Touch HD, but no 3G in US. The Nokia N97 will be available about the same time as the Palm Pre, but the Palm looks mighty fine. Two problems: No Video, SPRINT. I'll wait until it's on AT&T.

  • it does have video and sprint has one of the best wireless plans out there

  • Can't go wrong with $99 dollar for everything... Saves me 40-60$ compared to verizon and ATT. :)

  • T-Mobile now has $50 for unlimited calling and $30 for unlimited text/data/pictures etc.

    $99 vs. $80 and a better network.

  • wrong.

  • Looks great but way to late...

  • Sprint lost me because of poor customer service. I think they are finally starting to turn it around. But for now, I'm sticking with ATT. I love this phone...the real keyboard,..removable battery...MMS messaging...

  • i was about to switch to att for the iphone but now i might have to wait for this one.

  • I work for AT&T and I have an Iphone, this phone looks awesome! I hope we get it eventually. Competition is good and palm is one mobile phone manufacturer that definitely needed to come out with something new.

  • Had sprint like 7 years ago, Hated it, Poor service, and i was overcharged every month.

    How is Sprint now a days?

    I might consider moving over for this phone.

  • Service still average, but with the $99 everything plan it beats anything the others offer. iPhone service is somewhere around $80 and that's with limited minutes.

  • service is great. its just customer that service sucks.

  • i have had nothing but great service from Sprint. Customer service is great and the prices cant be beat.

  • Depends where you are. In New York no complaints.

    Great thing about sprint is they roam on verizon's network (including data) i have the best of both worlds right now.

  • well this phone is simply amazing.. finally death to the ifone ...

  • I have worked with phones for years, and this is simply amazing. Plus it runs Java and Web based apps, which is awesome for developers, they can ever port an existing app with this SDK.

    People with iPhones are going to hate it no matter how much better it is. (Apple Kool-Aid),

  • Loved it!!! The video was fun and it was pretty informative. Its awesome how the video is high quality!

  • Wow!  This looks Great !!! Best of Luck Palm. I've been a fan for years. Keep It Simple. Excellent!!!

  • I'm not sure if we can label this as the iPhone Killer just yet but it sure is a nice device.

  • I'm very impressed. The OS looks NICE.

  • this phone looks awesome

  • It's so cool!And better than Nokia's 5800XM!

  • watch out Iphone..Pre is gonna get ya..Sprint will reclaim its lost ground for sure..the stock is going up..some pundits were proven wrong..Palm is standing on firm and rejuvenated grounds..

  • I think this is reallyl great! they totally built this OS from the ground up. I'mi very happy that they did that instead of updating their current OS. New hardware needs new utilizations. I can see why the CEO is avoiding comparisons, because they are doing things differently.

  • I thought it's based on Linux and Webkit (the renderer Google Chrome and Safari (including the iPhone version) is based on). Although quite a lot will be Palm stuff, of course. And the interface is unique.

    Anyway, this thing is totally awesome. Now with proper app support, who would want an iPhone anymore?

  • It is based off those, however code named WebOS (if not mistaken). I'm loving this phone because iPhone lovers hate it for one, and it does what I want with the eye candy that I love. I think palm re-invented the iPhone per say, (ahem) like how iphone re-invented touch screen phones (roll eyes).

    *Multitask

    *Multi-touch gestures

    *Blazing fast

    *Great UI with better information handling.

    *plenty more.

    No this is not a iPhone copy cat...it's a Palm..get it right!

  • Truly breathtaking.

  • wow this is definetly gunna be an iphone killa.

  • For one it is an iphone knock off. For two Sprint sucks compared to ATT. Remember millions of people signed a two year contract for the iphone. Yes this is good for you if you have the Sprint but for the rest of us. We will keep the iphone

  • The Samsung Instinct is an iPhone knock off, the LG Vu,Voyager &Dare are knock offs. The Pre is different and slick as the iPhone, but faster, more featured with better handling of information.

    People say that Apple re-invented touch screen phones, well Palm just re-invented the iPhone. Don't hate on that comment, because it's true, with all the features that the pre does that the iphone doesn't...what else can you say. Besides...sprint is cheaper, and just as fast (if not faster) then ATT.

  • You must work for Sprint. Everyone I know that has had Sprint hates them. My sister-in-law worked for them and told me has bad the service was.

  • Ya that's your answer for firing back... typical... I do not work for sprint, I have sprint and my area is JUST fine! I have had no issues with them...

    Get over yourself, and move on. Consumers win...

  • "My sister-in-law worked for them and told me has bad the service was"

    So you go with what other people tell you? Your sister-in-law can say what she want, ATT can't match my bill, T-mobile can't beat my coverage, and Verizon can't beat my internet speed.

    But of course my friends said the same thing, I actually tried it first, and I'm glad I did.

  • But....

    T-Mobile can no match your bill...

    Verizon can beat your coverage....

    and ATT can match your net speed

  • I used to have Sprint, but jumped to AT&T (am a Blackberry nut). Sprint's service was good, but their bills were strange in that it felt like you were being overbilled for tons of stuff. Their in house customer service was okay, though.

  • i live in canada and have and iphone on rogers but i think they'll get this phone later one. Its definelty one to look out for, its like the iphone with more features....

  • I am SOOOOOO excited about this phone.  So cool

  • this is probably the one and only time I am excited about a cell phone coming out. As a long time Blackberry user, I will actually be willing to leave for this device...this unit is stunning. Palm truly surprised me and the quality. I really thought this company was going under but was I ever wrong. They will def get my money!

  • Yeah, it looks like an iphone, until an iphone pulls up. It funny how they think that every thing they are doing is new and hot. I do it everyday.

  • it was made by some of the same people... thus the similarity. I think they've done some new and cool stuff too though and as I don't have Att I'm quite interested

  • I agree but it is one of those things in life. If we are in a talent contest i want you to go first so that I can improve on what you did earlier to win. In that contest I have five mins. to look at what you have done and improve. Palm has had 6 months since the 3g and over a year for the orig. I would expect a little more. Plus what is the price.

  • And besides, it's good with all this competition coming out with better UI's and phones, cause we as the consumer, are winning for better products are coming to us.

  • Palm is the king and originators of touch screen devices. Why is everybody on iPhone's ass?

  • I have had Palm, blackberry, HTC and now the iphone. I will say other then the iphone not having flash video and MMS to other phones it is great.

  • Things are getting really boring now, does every phone that gets released have to be a touch screen with an iPhone complex?

  • SOLD!

  • great but what are the chance of europe seeing this in the coming 8 weeks. will be released q3 probably. who knows what will be out then

  • è troppo bello palm pre!!! chissà quanto costerà quando uscirà! e peccato che uscirà solo negli stati uniti!

  • intresting but why do you keep zooming in on his hands? no need ad all!

  • sweet!

  • 我爱palm,哈哈。非常棒的东东,我喜欢。

  • Its with sprint...thats a bummer...

  • Palm has said that a GSM/UMTS device will be out this year as well.

  • Hooray! I will not use SPRINT. I'll wait for the ATT 3G freqs.

  • Good for you? Whatever floats your boat dood

  • bummer for u lol. Sprint has always been the home of palm. Sprint is the best network period, they do have very bad customer service but that has nothing to do with the network. I can wait to get the palm pre...palm os is rock solid but is 10yrs old and I am glad they took their time to build a new os as good as the old one.

  • Sprint? The best network? Is that why my friends that have Sprint have choppy and dropped calls so often, while those of us with Verizon almost never have problems? I'm talking about the SF Bay Area anyway. Your area may be different. I've travelled extensively throughout the US though, and my Verizon reception, without exception, has been solid.

  • Verizon does cover a larger area I think, but sprint's EVDO is much faster. Either way, sprint is in no way a crappy network, now if it came on AT&T I would be upset lol.

  • Yeah I know they've improved since I had them about 11 years ago. If I didn't have a free Verizon phone from work I'd consider going Sprint just to get this phone.

  • I'm with you there, I just got into Tmobile because I wanted the G1 (Tmobile actually works well in my area, I was a little surprised lol). But now I kinda regret not waiting for this lol, its just palm said they were working on this for like 3 years now lol, I didnt expect it any time soon.

  • this looks so impressive and well thought out. thank goodness one company took their time to create a quality product instead of churning out mediocre phones in lue of the iphone. this is going to be huge in the US...

  • Really great!!!

  • OMFG!!!! I just have to say that this OS is one of the best I have ever seen, & very user friendly too...

    Finally Palm has done something Great!
