I had a pre back when it came out and after having broke 3 phones (screen went out after 3 days in one) 3 months b/c of their cheap materials, i sadly had to leave it behind. Wish they would have worked on that but Im no longer a sprint customers b/c of that issue.
Dont feel bad about palm. HP is going to spend millions to make palm software super cool. it is going to be amazing to see WebOS on HP phones and WebOS on a HP Pad product.
@purpose408 yeah I know but I hate when any company takes credit for coming out with something for the first time when it in fact had already been done long ago!
@Djluv5 I see. I did not know at the time because everyone was saying in the presentation PDK and he said SDK so I was automatically calling the mistake. Thanks though.
@paynefanbro Not quite...they cheated Verizon and ATT out of the full use of the PRE and PIXI...Sprints version can do way more...the the only reason they call it "PLUS" is because they have more space...thats gonna change soon as well.
@kennywate777 well actually verizon didnt steel anything, palm sign a contract with verizon because they believed they could get more buys. and to correct your iphone statement, apple is in the process of signing with verizon, but as of now they can't decide on pricing (which is the only reason its taking so long)
AvatarPicturisation is very admirable.The concept and animation included in this film is very amazing. Centiments included in this picture make the viewers feel a lot.

@shifterhh Exactly. I love WebOS but the hardware is a piece of crap. Why in the world would they put the best phone OS on something like this and then not enable what should already be enabled from the first boot up? Come on Palm, ur losing me here.
I'm really eager for the update. the new video recording and flash 10 which has been rumored since the pre was anounced are long awaited for additions.
I'm hoping that the mobil hotspot is only exclusive to verizon at launch and eventually migrats to sprint, we know the device is cabable of it, the hoembrew community shows us that . It's great to see the pre go to multiple carries, and not just webos, because the pre is the best phone i've ever had and i want to keep it . no nav button? ...
thats ok, it really doesn't do much does it overall, long as the led is still there, & please enable led notifications already. I love my pre, but the homebrew fixes added much much needed useability, my fav mods...landscape email & chat, seperated keyboard and backlight brightness, reduced user selectable brightness, led notifications, actual battery % text vs icon, led flashlight, adtl nav pages & alt icon layouts, I hope for true palm support in the core, or continued easy homebrew support
@lagnut1982 not really...because last year they didnt even let you touch it...only the presenter employees were allowed to touch it...you asked them to show you stuff and they did everything so it certainly makes sense to everyone who was at CES 2009
I really enjoyed watching the presentation, thank you Palm. I'm a bit bummed that Verizon will be receiving an unheard memory bumped Pre though it is the nature of the beast. I'm extremely thrilled that another US carrier will be receiving webOS devices though. webOS deserves to have much more market share than what is currently given!
What a weak, lame and boring presentation. I hope they were targeting businesses because all that marketing laden bullshit with all the buzz words just irritates consumers. Palm also keeps talking about bringing the Pre to Europe. So far the Pre is available in 2 maybe 3 countries out of 50 in Europe.
I got this day 1 at best buy. Im a first release user. I dont consider myself screwed though by the vz move. I think the first 6 months of having this phone and learning homebrew and all the patches/updates etc. Its been more fun than anything.. now watching it evolve means its only getting better.
i completely agree. i love my phone, and i love sprint so im not mad. i wouldnt use the wifi hotspot thing, being in high school and all and i have a zune hd so i dont need more storage. and i like the squishy keyboard for some reason
This is some really cool stuff. Don't forget about us Sprint Users for Gen. 3 Palm. We were with you from the start of it all so show us some love next time around! Keep it up
Flash 10.1 is not new for the rest of the world?? 3D gaming is not new for the rest of the world (excluding iPhone users, not everyone has an iPhone)?? a PDK is not new for developers?? true multitasking is not new for the rest of the world?? QUIT BEING A PHUCKING TROLL! STOP HATING AND SAY SOME SOMETHING MEANINGFUL.
I love my Palm Pre. For the Sprint users like me that envy the Pre Plus, get over it. We all knew that we were getting the 1st generation. Soon enough the 3rd generation will arrive too. Can't wait for my contract to end in 2011 and buy the latest version then! Go Palm!
Palm is really stepping up their game, really exciting!!! BUT we Sprint users feel really left out by not getting a pre/pixi + ... really palm?Thanks alot, especially after all the support were showing!
Lol Jon Rubenstein certainly didn't learn how to speak from Steve Jobs. But, like the Zune, if reviews are high, that's great, but what is still the most important are sales.
The Pre and Pixi really needed more RAM. I still think they'll stay in last place, perhaps passing WinMo one day, but I hope this can save them from going under.
my head was exploding today at work watching the typed feed. I cant wait for feb. my bday is the 9th. that would be so sweet to get the update and hopefully flash as well. I got this phone at launch 7am at best buy. Playing Need For Speed Now. Its awesome.
Relax, that's the same old feeling the entire apple community has with the Iphone (2g-3g-3gs and wait june!). I'm from Italy and paid 470€ to buy it from Germany 'cause Palm still has'nt managed to pick up a carrier here!
I'm glad to see Palm continue to put out new products but i was really hoping they would lose the exclusivity of certain carriers. I have Sprint and would love to see the Pre Plus work on their network. Hopefully it will be released to Sprint in the not so distant future.
Great. but I juts want to point out that when he was playing with the sims and the notification came on he had to flip the phone back and the messages do not have landscape mode - so annoying, hopefully they'd look back at it and add the option to have landscape everything plus an on board keyboard = ) yay, that's it! lol
wonder why the apps shown ran smooth? and no too many windows open? because they were on the plus, see the button missing? fucking bullshit with the extra ram it has
"...And the current champ (crApple) is against the ropes! The #1 contender (Palm) is delivering blow, after vicious blow! It looks like the champ can't take the abuse....he's going down! He's going down! crApple is on the mat, he's down for the count.. 10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1..."
I like the middle button on my sprint pre!! it looks better. Yay, for flash and video recording!!!! Now give us Visual Voicemail and we will forever LOVE you!!
@DarkPolarisBoi Visual Voicemail already exists. All you need is a Google Voice account and download the free Visual Voicemail app from Palm's App Catalog. I bought 3 Google Voice accounts on e-bay for $2.00. Within minutes I had Visual Voicemail with automatic transcription so I could read my voice mail messages within seconds of someone leaving a message!
I grabbed my Pre on day 1 and it keeps getting better. Every few weeks, it's like I have a new phone! Keep it going everyone. You are doing amazing work !
hey palm here is a question: is the pre plus faster than the original pre? is there more ram?? and what is your deal with sprint? seems they are getting the short end here. but i need to know if i should jump ship to verizon from pre plus or stick with my sprint pre
great phones but you need to promote the pixi more, add more games, apps etc. made for the pixi
