Been using my new Palm Pre for about 2 weeks now and it is pretty much what I was looking for. All of the basic phone capabilities for today's business user are there and work well (phone, contacts, email, calendar, synch, maps/gps). Everything else is a bonus like Pandora (awesome streaming on the Sprint network), LinkedIn, Where, Tweed, Evernote and Sprint navigation. Not many apps right now but once you get past the basics do you really need 100s of apps or just a few good ones? Battery life is reasonable but I have yet to really test it out and I still have not had a freeze or random reset. OS/UI was very intuitive and I adapted quite easily. My biggest ? going into this purchase was the keyboard size (coming from an HTC Mogul) but I was surprised at how comfortable it was and I have big, but Treo-experienced thumbs. One down side was not having a thumb wheel or pad for navigating around text apps (like email). It is annoying to have to touch the screen where you want to edit. The little nav ball is already there make it even more useful! I recommend covering this phone since the all shiny surface is going to get scratched. I went with the Zagg invisibleSHIELD and had BestBuy do the install. I am quite satisfied with this purchase and I highly recommend it. Enjoy!
WebOS, contacts and calendar synch, user interface.
All glossy finish requires a skin. No cursor control/nav button.
