Hey great video. Do you know if the pre actually reminds you if youre going to be late and suggests the fastest route to get there. they advertised the phone as being able to do that initially....just wondering.

You know I heard this too but I haven't seen anything for it. Maybe it will be handled with 3rd party apps or something...

2 questions:

1) can you set up different calendars in the Palm Profile account?

2) can you just type to search for events?

thanks--your videos have been fantastic!

I don't see a way to set up a different calendar in the Palm Profile. I also cannot type to search for an event.

I have a question, in google if you put a specific address it will show you a map in google maps, will the pre calander do that as well? Also, what happens if you put the same event in both google and the pre and then sync? one last question, what happens if you put 2 different events in the pre for the same time same day?

I'll check into this and let you know.

I don't understand why there is no search for an event in the calendar. That doesn't make any sense. And if you click on the address you put in under "Location," does it open Google Maps? (It really should if it doesn't!).

Also, why can't you do a search for these under the Universal search? Why only apps & contacts? Why not also memos, tasks, events, etc???

How did you get your Pre screen to show on your computer monitor?

[PaulWozniak]

How do you set up two calendars within your google calendar, like you did with a main one and a work one?

My question woudl be does the Palm have the option of inviting attendees. it is very hard to find a PDA/Smartphone that does this and yet many of our phonhes are used for work purposes. Am I missing something here? I am looking for a smartphone that has this option or the capabilities to do something that would notify others of a "meeting" or event.

I am interested in this feature as well.

Very nice demo, thanks a lot!!

Hi,

I don't care about colors and facebook calendars.

What I wanted to find out, that your demo didn't cover, was if searching the calendar was good or not. Can anyone enlighten me on search in the palm pre calendar? Thanks.

Really useful video! I don't actually own a Palm Pre but your video was the only way I could find out whether it will work with my Google Calendar the way I want it to (looks like it does by the way) before buying one. Thanks for the clear explanation.

@xola1111 This is one reason i have no gotten one yet, I will not buy anything that doesn't have a monthly view like the Palm OS calender, i could find anything in seconds just cause of colors. I have about 10 different colors. When palm updates it or makes an amazing app, Then i will buy

[xola1111]

I finally got the colors! I went to my Palm Pre, got my calendar and press "calendar" like if I were sincing, then find and press "Calendar View Options" and there you go! COLORS!!! Yeah! Anyway, thank you so much. What other feutures you have discovered that you like, I am sure I am missing a bunch of stuff. Thank you for your help!

You have to use another program as the "desktop" component, but you can get color-coded categories. I love my new Palm Pre.
