The staff of PreThinking was watching a 43 minute walk through of the Pre from tnkgirl and they found this interesting little bit of information slip from one of the Palm reps: "The Touchstone is the name of a entire line of products. This is the first Touchtone product in that family. This is the charging dock." What is he referring ... continued »

Most of you know that we weren't allowed to fully experience the Palm Pre at CTIA because Palm wanted to control the environment. This angered many people, including the staff of MyPre. We wanted to play with the Pre, get our hands on it and experience the iPhone-killing abilities of Palm's savior. But we weren't allowed to. The media was restricted ... continued »

Samsung launched the follow up to the best-selling Sprint phone ever at CTIA last week. The Samsung Instinct S30 was announced and demoed for the public; it will be released on April 19th. This is not the best news for those that desire the Palm Pre. If you think about it, the Palm Pre is the must have phone from Sprint. ... continued »

We went back for a third time to see the Palm Pre, because let's face it, we can't get enough of that device. This time, Sprint and Palm showed us something that they were unsure if it would work indoors: the Navigation. It looks sweet.

The Classic app will run like any other "card" on the Pre, and can be used with other apps running in the background. This application will be able to support all of the PalmOS applications, which are installed as easily as dragging ... continued »

The news that MotionApps would be releasing a Palm-sanctioned emulator for webOS, allowing Palm OS software to run on the Pre, was met with much interest.  PhoneScoop managed to catch a video demo of the Pre running Classic, together with details on just how straightforward it will be to load original Palm OS programs onto the new smartphone. Installing an app ... continued »

It seems that after the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT today at the Web 2.0 Summit of the early SDK, Palm also confirmed that a third party developer will be supporting Legacy PalmOS applications. "Classic" is an application designed by MotionApps and will allow users to use the legacy PalmOS applications. Obviously, no word on availability. It seems the rumors weren't completely off, although the ... continued »

Another application that, as far as we can tell, Palm only showed to us, was FlightView. It's an interesting application that allows you to track flights and give you live flight information. If you're waiting for a friend or loved one's flight, FlightView will give you up-to-minute information and live tracking on their flight on a map. The application also incorporates the ... continued »

I have Sprint TV on my Instinct, and it's been rough going. There have been numerous updates for it, and they've never really hashed out all the bugs.  Not true on the Pre. Sprint TV was clear and smooth. It was beautiful really. We were watching ABC Mobile TV on the Pre's gorgeous display, and it looked good. I would actually ... continued »
