  • @Turphed if you got a phone with 700-1000 mb you don't need a task manager. They actually slow the phone down. For better task switching try Swipe Pad or Clutch Pad. They're gesture-based task switchers.

  • @mrmoe110 I have a sidekick 4G, so idk if that'll work out, I tried swipepad, I'm gonna try clutch pad

  • @Turphed Dude you can't use the extinct eris to represent android. there's a reason everyone gets the android phones with at least a 1 ghz processor. your phone looked sloooooooowwwww compared to most stock, unrooted android phones. compared to a rooted android its not even close

  • @mrmoe110 I had ample android phones, none were as good at multitasking as WebOS, sorry to disappoint you, but I switchfed back to android (check out my channel) but I hate having to use a task manager, Cards was much easier to use

  • You said "palm" is not well known??? So wrong. Palm was out way before Iphones. Palm and blackberry started the smart phone thing. But going from android to a palm interface I don't see as an upgrade. You were using an Eris... that is a SLOW phone. Anything is going to be better than that now. But to try to put android or any other mobile OS down based on Palm? Stupid. I don't even picture palm being around for much longer. But enjoy your phone.

  • I wasn't judging speed, I was judging OS, you CANNOT sit there and say that Android has this fast of software multitasking, you always have to download some random task manager..

see all

  • Why? Palm wen't under bro...

  • By the way, i live outside of the United Steaks of America and where i live the Touchpad and Palm precum NEVER got released, apparently the Touchpad was supposed to come out this month but that annoucement was like back in March but now HP has shutdown hardware production of their WebOS powered hardware.

    I would have liked a landscape slideout but, can i get an UNLOCKED Palm that can use ANY and i mean ANY network provider? AT&T doesn't exist here.

  • What's that constant "Twit Twit" sound in the background? it sounds like the sound fruit bats make when they fly overhead.

  • @DJFrostbyte when is the last time you saw a Palm commercial lol, you just want to argue.. n the meantime, I owned 7 android powered phones before this phone, all couldn't do this fast of multitasking, you'll be okay..
