The Palm Pre hit store shelves today, or at least it did in theory. I checked out a Best Buy and a Sprint retail shop and the only sign that the Palm Pre even existed was a small poster at Sprint that said “Pre coming soon.” Regardless, reviews for the Pre have been overwhelmingly positive, […]

Bloomberg has an interesting article about how Jon Rubinstein infused a bit of Apple’s culture into the development process of the Palm Pre. Rubenstein, of course, spent over 20 years with Steve Jobs, 9 of which were at Apple, and was an important part of the team that helped developed the original iMac and the […]

With the Palm Pre hitting select stores tomorrow, Jon Jonansen, who you might know better as DVD John, gave us some more information on how exactly the Pre is able to sync up with iTunes. As I speculated in my previous blog post on Palm Pre Sync and now confirmed by the image above, when […]

Last week we reported that the upcoming Palm Pre can sync with iTunes, a move which we labled as “terribly shortsighted” on the part of Palm. After all, Apple can presumably issue an iTunes software update which would effectively prevent iTunes from recognizing the Pre, leaving Palm customers confused and annoyed in the process. But […]

The Palm Pre reviews are rolling in, and one thing that stands out is just how great a job Palm has done on the UI. It looks incredible, and though it won’t be enough to topple the iPhone, that doesn’t really matter. It’s a solid phone, and competition is always good. I mean, the current […]

With the Palm Pre set to launch in just 3 days, a lot of people are wondering if the Pre will be able to give the iPhone a run for its money. Our take, in a word, is “no”. At this point in time, almost everything the Pre offers is already available on a number […]

The good folks over at the Boy Genius Report got their hands on the Palm Pre and overall their take on the device is about what I expected – good, but not great. Specifically, they really liked the screen, which they described as “vibrant” and “rich”, but they felt that the keyboard left a lot […]

Yesterday we reported that the Palm Pre will have the ability to sync with iTunes, and now we have a little bit more information as to how it all works. In a recent blogpost, Jon Johansen, who might be better known as DVD John, described what Palm is most likely doing to trick iTunes into […]

The upcoming Palm Pre will seamlessly connect with iTunes, according to a report from Fortune. Third party programs that perform the same service for various non-Apple MP3 players — including the Palm Treo and 700p – have been available for some time. But team Pre has apparently built the necessary code right into the device’s […]

Check out this screenshot from a leaked Palm Pre launch guide which lists all the ways the Palm Pre “smokes the competition.” The Palm Pre looks cool, but this chart sure as hell won’t help convince people to jump on over to Sprint.
