  • the palm pre is like broken or something

    it says 3:01 talk about electronic glitches

  • lol... Cingular? Why not get Verizon? It might solve the iPhone4 antenna problem

  • WIRELESS!

  • inductive charging is a great idea, i have a sony ericsson phone which is in good shape aside from the busted charging port...this would be really handy once this tech goes mainstream..

  • I saythe iPhone is better

  • This looks very pro apple hahah.... i have iphone 3G and HTC touch pro... my iphone was hyped up by their store, not what i thought it was. my HTC was hyped up by everyone and is exactly what i thought it was. And I was gullible. but Pre looks like an upgrade from touch pro.... if only it was out for verizon since my sprint and at&t don't qualify for upgrades...

  • @damonfong0 its coming to verizon probably this month or next.

  • nope just got off the phone with verizon they said they were offering it. and rumors say the 7th

  • NICE! contract ended months ago and pondering between Pre and Droid, both look like they kick my iPhone 3G's ass and about as good as HTC!!!

  • I Like The Way The Pre Said Shut Up To The Iphone ..

    I Love My Iphone <3

  • lol like the pre voice!! hehe

  • lol at the end " WIRELESS !! " lol ;D

  • I can't tell if this is Pro-Pre or Pro-Apple, but I lol'd.

  • funny

  • wow ur a faggot

  • palm pre souds ilke Michael Jackson

  • hahaha

  • Haha... The same wireless charger system is available for iphone as well... try again.

  • the palm pre i great but as my opinion the iphone looks alot better.

  • the iphone is huge and gay it broke really easily and the palm pre is wayyy better about battery! the iphone has a better app store but the palm multitasks!

  • I like the Palm and Iphone but your a moron the Palm has been shipping broken and the batterys have been being sent out broken. And for multitasking its ok.... but just ok.....

  • very funny

  • Wow! Brilliant...a wireless charger that isnt really wireless but it is still called a wireless charger. This marketing strategy will work wonders on republicans and Windows users.

  • Ummm it is wireless say you have a desk or in your car ( the Pre is held on it by magnets) all you have to do is set it on it which takes all of 2 seconds. I'm a Mac user, and had the 3G but the palm is by far better. Oh and btw you can hook it up in your car on the dash with some double sided Velcro or w/e you want to use and charge it and have GPS right there can your iphone do that? FOR FREE? lmao

  • A wire connects the charging unit to a power source. So it is not wireless. And YES if I want the wireless (but not really wireless because the power source is connected by a wire) I can by the one they make for the iphone, velcro it to my dash (I am not stupid enough and my car is too nice to velcro anything to my dash - ever.) And yes I will have GPS right there and charge it for free. Yes my iphone can do that.... and much much more than the Pre.

  • You're a crack-up.

  • WIRELESS is referring to the connection going directly to the phone. It's like saying a cordless phone isn't cordless because the base is wired to the wall and a phone jack. What, are people taking the whole thing with them when they answer a call? Sprint Nav is provided by TeleNav, which features a strange device (an iPhone) as one of the supported products. Several other mapping companies uses TeleNav technology.

  • No shit dude. My point is that this "wiereless" charger is a ridiculous gimmick to try to seem cutting edge when really there is no advantage to it's "wirelessness" It charges ONLY when it is stuck on the charger and at no other time. (much like when you put an iphone on it's dock - there is no wire connecting it to the phone - only the wire connecting the dock to the power source.) This doesn't fit the definition of "wireless charging" if you ask me. Funny to see the gimmick work on morons!

  • Seeing as how the iPhone dock is contact-on-contact, it isn't on the same "plane" as the magnetic induction principle. The contacts sometimes become dirty, or wear. You can put the pre on in any orientation, and it charges. Plus the touchstone charging is faster in comparison with using the usb method. With the magnet, you can still have your phone in a case or protective pouch, and the electricity still gets through. Cover your contact port, and let me know how your phone is in the morning!

  • Pre does not have turn by turn.... that rights reversed for iPhone, being provided by TomTom

  • Yes it does, and by saying that your not only proving your an apple fan boy but your a typically not informed fanboy...

  • Can you tell me the company then? cause I'd really like to know how a Web OS could even run an application like that seamlessly?

  • It is Sprint Nav but unlike ATT it is modified ( unlike the ATT NAV currently in the app store) for the Palm Web OS. And other companies can make what they want for the phone. Like Garmin or TomTom.

  • In the 2 years I have had iphone and the 6 years I have owned ipods, I have never had a problem with contacts becoming dirty or wearing out. I don't use any cases other than invisisheild because the iphone is solid and not made of cheap plastic parts. I have no reason to cover the port. I see no advantage to this $70 accessory. But like I said before, this pathetic marketing gimmick will work on some people...and that's why I thought it was so funny. Looks like it must have worked on you.

  • A Macfag talking to us about "marketing gimmicks"? What the fuck?

  • LMAO. You sound like a homophobic Pre fanboy full of envy and bitterness. You are confusing extremely successful marketing of superior products with poor marketing of plastic wanna-be clones and gimmick accessories.. It must have worked on you too!

  • haha no, I use almost any phone EXCEPT the pre. You sound like a tool to assume that I use the pre just because some jew-nosed shylock motherfucker is spewing bullshit on the internet. Fuck Apple. The only reason they exist is because of a fucking Music player!

  • Sounds like you have a lot of anger built up inside. It's funny that a company that makes computers can make you that angry. And you think I sound like a tool?! 

    Thanks for the laugh.

  • Oh...wow. Impressive Rebuttal. You sound like an excellent judge of character over the internet.

    Thanks for the troll food macfag.

    I use an iPhone haha

  • Gotta love the internet freak show.

  • Gosh, what a storm of hate. The thing is I'm actually a great fan of all things Palm and have never owned or used any Apple stuff, including the iPhone.

    I own dozens of Palm PDA's and will be getting a Pre as soon as I can get hold of a SIM unlocked GSM one here in the UK.

    Macfag? Hardly.

    Poking gentle fun at the Pre? Yes.

    Watch the fifth video in this series for the Pre's retaliation.

  • Comment removed

  • i love these vids they are awsome. And i love my wireless charger!

  • That was actually funny

  • I would have to say this is the best palm charger yet, i had 3 different palm phones, and this new wireless charger works like a charm, all i do is just place it on the dock, no connecting or anything.

  • Palm pre comes out to 1300 bucks less than iphone after your 2 year contract. Can you think of anything the iphone does worth that?

  • who cares about the charger

  • one thing I have to say. Working at a cell phone place that fixed cell phones one of the most common issues were charging ports. People would be to abusive or careless and quite often break the ports. A wireless charger would greatly help this.

  • Thank you for the comment. I hadn't considered this reason before, but you're right. On a couple of Palm devices that I own, the charging port has died over time. I guess there finally is a good reason to use an induction charger.

  • Yea actually on all the phones i've had the charge port has died over time.

  • LOL. i have this phone and love it but that was kinda funny...  :D

  • yeah the pre sure does fail

  • y does the iphone say cingular

  • You're right, but I never noticed that. I just used a stock image that I stole from the internet. Hmm... most curious. Good eyes!

  • Probably an advertising photo from before it came out, when AT&T was cingular.

  • iphone = the best cell phone

  • Come to Att please :)

  • Uh... welll I'm a Palm fan, but oddly I found myself kind of writing against the Pre. Watch the fifth video (click my username) to see the Pre's revenge.

  • is this for or against the pre? the pre seems like its gonna be a decent phone im still torn between it and the iphone. the pres plan is like $20 cheaper tho and you can do all the same stuff

  • This was really stupid.

  • still pre stronger and better

  • palm pre rules

  • matrix keyboard

  • It is so funny how every kid in Middle school and in High School has a IPHONE and when you go to college every studentd has a TREO or a BLACKBERRY.

  • It must be fun in your world. In your world, are drugs legal? Because I'd like to come to your world... and get high. We could talk all day about getting high, then actually get high. Yea... That must be fun. Texting all day on our Palms. The good stuff in one hand, phone in the other. We get so high that we forget about problems, Syncing issues. Poor Service. Yea that must be the life. :}
  • I don't know what your talking about. I've never seen anyone use a treo anywhere!

    since 2 years ago when the treo 650 was the sh*t

    what middle school child has a job and can afford an iphone? maybe an itouch

  • the i phone doesnt have a battery becuase you cant open it

  • sorry but the iphone does have a battery ;/

  • The blackberry storm tried to beat the Iphone and couldnt but this phone looks much btter than the blackberyy storm

  • Sweet!!!

    The Pre has the functionality of my electric toothbrush. Now if only it could brush teeth. Then Id be set :)

    No really, the space used to make the magnetic sensitivity could be better used by say more battery space :/

  • Ah, now there's something. The Pre doesn't come with the ability to use the induction charger. It requires a back unit to be placed on it. So I guess there isn't any space being taken up by induction coils... until you stick the back plate on it.

  • It requires a backplate XD?

    Talk about misplaced hype.

    Pigs can fly!*

    *Requires a Make your pig fly unit. Sold Seperately.

  • Yes, astonishingly Palm's much vaunted Touchstone induction charger requires a special backplate for the Pre and it costs 70 US dollars. You can buy an electric toothbrush with precisely the same kind of charger for twenty bucks. Shameful.

  • haha i love the ending

    with a wi......OH SHUT UP!

  • Just sad and dumb

  • Brilliant!

    I like this one the most out of your iphone vs pre videos

    :-)

  • lolllllllllll Great ..... Sound was like Cars movie's Lightning McQueen :)

  • hahahahahahaha.

    omq.

    "wireless.!''

  • this video is fucking retarded

  • with a wi- OH SHUT UP!

    Classic.

  • LMFAO funny ass shit!!!

  • yeah boo iphone or ifuckingsuck.

    iphone sucks against the Pre.

    I have no respect for iphone at all cuase they lack a lot of standard features like copy&paste, removable battery, real keys not ghost keys, video camera, and i can keep goin on and on but my remaining character count is almost gone.

  • it has copy paste now (3.0) lol, a removable battery would mean less battery time. Phones with built in batteries usually last longer, a good example is the new 17 inch MacBook Pro. Also i prefer "ghost" keys, i can type really fast on it. Video camera i would like though.

  • Actually, as far as I have seen, the pre will not be able to record video either.

  • he will, after an app will be developed.

  • HE? its a phone its an it not a he

  • why do people comment and make accusations that the Pre will be so much better than the iphone?

    it still hasn't been released and there is no clue as to how many bugs it may have.

    The iphone is still kind of the phones, if another phone were to come out that was actually better including the os and touch features, then i would be happy

    happy not because it beat the iphone...

    happy for the progress of technology

  • well, there's this thing called product testing which shows what a product can do and gets out the bugs before the product launches. that's why people say it's better than the iphone, because people have demo'd it and shown what it's like.

  • incorrect

    that little thing that they call product testing is not the final version of the OS

    infact it is usually as buggy as can be. This title *iphone killer* was claimed of this phone months in advance when it was in its begginging stages of OS fixing.

    It only got that name because of the POTENTIAL that it may have,

    and by the way, their hasn't been an independent product testing of the unit yet, ONLY from Palm executives which no what to show and what NOT to show to make it look great

  • You're right. The demos we've seen so far are Awesome, but it's not even finished yet. So it's going to be Better than the demos. And No, Palm execs aren't the only ones to get it. If you pay any attention to engadget or tech news in general, you'd know that many others have been able to test the phone out and show what it's like. For example, BoyGenius Report tested it and said the OS was amazing, while the hardware felt cheap. That's something I can live with. It's all about the OS and apps.

  • Can you deal with virtually no 3rd party apps. That part was not handled well. Also, I heard the above wireless charger costs an extra $70.

  • n its really slow.

  • Come on. The iPhone didn't even have an app store at first. I've already got 25 available, and considering how ridiculously easy their SDK is, I know there will soon be hundreds. The charger is the first of its kind, it's a luxury, it's expensive. But I can get it for about $50 online, and since the construction cost is estimated at about $5-10, they can and will lower the price eventually. Besides, now that I have the Pre, iPhones look downright ugly to me. Competition will help Apple grow.

  • Yeah, but if your competing nowdays, specially to compete with the iPhone you gotta have at least an app store.. iPhone got a way with no apps store before, coz the iPhone is so different... They,palm, have not even release the SDK... How long developers are going to wait until they make an app?

  • There is an app store, and there are about 30 apps within the first week since release, from a company a fraction of the size of apple. If they released the SDK to everyone, they would have to redirect people power to deal with bugs and patches instead of working on updating the WebOS platform. They can't do everything at once, and releasing the SDK would cause chaos for them at this point. Besides, they have dozens if not hundreds of apps being written by approved partners right now.

  • I bet Tom Tom isn't one of those apps though :( I really like the Pre, but Tom Tom has sold me an iPhone, at the moment at least.

  • Well it comes with sprint navigation, probably not as good as tomtom, but neither is as good as a dedicated GPS. I wonder what happens when you get a call/notification while navigating..?

  • I live in the UK and we have one carrier Sat Nav on phones, Sprint isn't in the UK either so it doesn't affect me. The carrier sat nav is also charged for on a monthly bases. Tom Tom is a one of charge, you can add extras if you want so it's better value. Plus I have no idea when the Pre comes to the UK.

  • it'd be funny if this was the actual commercial Apple released when the Pre comes out

  • haahhaha hilarious

  • Great job getting Cary Ewles and Jermaine from Flight of the Conchords to do the harsh whispering voice overs.

  • Thats very funny good job

  • wow how gay. I have an iphone but this is just really stupid. Is that your best shot at the pre?

  • I lmaoed when at the end he just screams "WIRELESS!" lol good job

  • what made you guys want to do something like this? ... haha you guys are so creavtive that was so origianal and completely funny!!! [=

  • Fucking gay. Get a life.

  • Aw, that hurts. But not as much as you falling on your face when your snowboard stunt went wrong.

  • You are an idiot.

  • Haha nice one kodabar :)

  • Wait... I have videos?!

    :S

  • Actually, this is a pretty lame flame.

  • excellent, kodabar :)
