Looks like a lot of Droid-ites responding - clearly the favorite of many techies. So I'll just pipe in with my thoughts on the Pre. As a long time user of Windows Mobile devices, I'm very impressed and happy with the Palm Pre. As I told a friend of mine (iPhone user) it's the first phone I've had that I didn't need to seriously hack to get some good use out of it. *What I like*: The Pre has a touch screen and fully implemented HTML5 user interface *with* multi-touch gestures. It integrates very well with Exchange (for work) and Google (for personal). The Synergy feature gets me access to everyone's information in one fell swoop. It has a physical keyboard. The absolute best thing, though, is the relationship between Palm and the "hacker" community. Witness this recent twitter posting from WebOSInternals: http://twitter.com/webosinternals/status/7145061661. They were given early access to a WebOS update by Palm. Contrast that with the relationship the Jail Break community has with Apple! In fact, many applications in the official App Catalog were "graduates" from the side-loading, app gallery. Palm has taken quite a few hacker patches and incorporated them into the official releases of WebOS. *What I don't like*: Well, I could do with a few more apps. Having used Windows Mobile phones (in spite of the interface) and being used to the availability of things like the xda developer's forum has spoiled me. I could do with a larger screen. Maybe we could jail-break the iPad and run WebOS on it! Dan On Wed, Feb 3, 2010 at 6:14 AM, netevil <netevil at hackers.it> wrote:
