    Actually the Pre doesn't exist. It's a dumb display with speaker and microphone connected to a laptop PC and wired telephone concealed in the Palm reps clothing. That's why they can't let go of it.

    Iphone is hands on, right now, and once they update with the sideways keyboard it will be pretty much unstoppable.

    I'm not the best guy at making predictions but from what I've seen so far, Palm's Pre will be a flop. I was a long time Palm user (started using Palm with their PDAs in 2000 or so) but I switched to an iPhone when it came out. iPhone 3 does everything that Pre was claiming it will do and does it better. And it also has thousands of apps to go with it.


    If I had few million $$$ in the bank, I'd stat shorting Palm. It will be bloodbath!

    Me thinks the Pre is POS. They're worried that someone who can truly take the phone on a test spin would quickly reveal all it's warts. A no-nothing like Stern is the perfect test subject since he will just ooh and ahh over the shiny object.


    I don't see men buying it. Look at it. It's a chick phone if there ever was one. Just imagine bedazzled.

    @Sandogg: Ummm. Yeah....


    A *nix kernel and Palm's years of experience? Plus Palm OS emulation for 1000's of apps? Multitasking?


    iPhone killer? No. But it will fit neatly somewhere between the iPhone, the Curve/Bold, and the Windows and Android devices - taking a little marketshare from all of them, RIM most of all, I'd think.
