Good for you. I'm more stoked about Palm having modern hardware and software than the particular feature set of the Pre, but I'm still considering getting one. {ProfJonathan}

Dropping back into the discussion, I can easily see how WebOS may well meet my needs as they evolve past my T|X, even though I'm not sure the Pre in its announced form does. I'm not as concerned...

A few thoughts, from an Internet law professor (though this is of course not legal advice!):

1) Palm has certainly been down the patent infringement allegation road before (remember Xerox, and the...

A few thoughts on the above:

1) There are styli available for the iPhone that should work with the Pre, since they utilize the same type of resistive screens. They're not perfect, but they do...

Good price on 16GB SDHC Card

For those who, like me, have installed PowerSDHC (http://www.palmpowerups.com/readarticle.php?article_id=11) on their T|X, NewEgg is currently selling an A-Data 16GB Class 6 SDHC card for $24.45 with...

One point: WebOS is Linux-based, which means that Palm is legally *obligated* to release the source code when asked. That should allow more sophisticated developers to get into the works more...

I'm cautiously optimistic about the Pre, but as the heavy-duty user of a T|X with a 16GB SDHC card and an external Bluetooth keyboard, I'm not likely to jump into actually purchasing a Pre (assuming,...

Don't bet on this; I'm fairly sure that, at least in the near-term, touchscreen tech is either one or the other, and I suspect multitouch probably requires the iPhone/Pre-type of screen, meaning no...

Looks like the Pre, unlike all previous Palm handhelds, uses capacitive touch technology for its screen (like the iPhone). Traditional styli won't work. There is, however, at least one maker of...

Not to worry, Dmitry

It seems clear from some of the discussions with Palm after the launch that real programmers will have a home on the Pre as well. Not only is the OS Linux-based (which legally means that the source...
