Palm Goes All In With The Pre
by Jason Wilk on January 8, 2009

- Introducing the Palm Pre. The curvy touchscreen Blackberry killer (because we know it won’t touch the iPhone), has a 3.1-inch 320 x 480 multitouch display.
- As we have said before, it has a full QWERTY keyboard that slides out from underneath the phone. Contains an accelerometer for landscape viewing. The phone is running Palm’s all new Nova platform, and also includes Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS, 3 megapixel camera, all with laptop style power.
- No one has gotten a hands on demo yet, so stay tuned for the important stuff like mail, screen responsiveness, app store, etc. There’s already one downside to the phone, it is exclusively with Sprint for the first half of 2009 with no price tag yet. Just lost one potential customer. Thanks to Engadget for the photo.
- Is there something oddly familiar about that dial screen and the bottom Nav bar?
