The New Palm Pre

The New Palm Pre mobile device / cellular phone. I’m suffering some serious technolust right now. This thing completely blows me away.
I remember when the iPhone came out. I wanted one. But, I refused to go back to AT&T. I thought if I waited long enough, AT&T’s exclusivity would end. It’s been almost two years now–still exclusive to AT&T. Then the Google Android G1 came out. T-Mobile only? Bleah. I’ll wait for a different carrier. I was briefly interested in the new Blackberry Storm for Verizon. That is, until I actually tried to use one–hated the interface.
Sigh. What’s a gadget geek like me to do? And then Palm comes out of nowhere and introduces the Pre–and knocks my socks off.
The Pre’s hardware design and UI are top-notch. It makes the iPhone look old and clunky. The concept of ‘synergy’ is revolutionary–all your info, from all your sources, all in one app on the Pre.
Drops on Sprint soon. I can’t wait! I’ll be one of the first in line =)
Dude, I want one. And looks like Sprint’s plans are cheaper than what I currently have. Life would be so grand if I can switch when it comes out!
no video though or it would be PERFECT /sigh
I have a Storm and I’ll admit it sucked until the first firmware was released now it only half sucks
