You mention all the problems with the iPhone and the one reason you said it was the best was because of the App Store? 100,000 apps is impressive but the the iPhone is severely lacking in hardware functionality when compare to phones like the Droid. It also has terrible reception being stuck on ATT . Sorry but the Droid is best phone for 2009.

Most pros vote the Droid as phone of the year by a long shot, then again, they base it on actual specs, features, build quality, etc. Who knows what this guy bases it on???

@ripralph09 dont be sure... the keyboard is very confortable and palm pre is multi touch too and it can be loaded with a lot of apps as the i phone and yes you can share music files and the sound quality is a lot better...

@dmrecords My 3 yr contract is up with Bell and I wanna get a smartphone now. I love HTC phones with slide QWERTY, but there ain't too many of those around. I seen the Palm Pre and played with it and thought it was pretty cool. I didnt't like the small keys, cuz i like to type put my routines and small keys slow me down. The staff @ the Bell Store are always discouraging me from it and showing me the Motorola Dext instead. What can YOU tell me about the Palm Pre?
