When Palm announced their upcoming Palm Pre Smartphone the whole internet spoke about it. Positively.
If you want to know why, here’s the full video presentation from CES.
After having watched the video I can say the Palm Pre (facts) kicks iPhone’s ass in terms of usability, multi-tasking with flipping applications, seamless integration of the cloud, checking the calendar while on the speaker phone, unobstrusive notifications. Wow!
If Palm manages to market the device well, I think they’ll have a chance to survive and kick other phone’s asses. Some people say it’s their last chance or else they’ll go bust.
Why does everyone build phones that look like the iphone?
The iPhone is the new best-practice and the best gets copied often.
I’m a huge Palm and Mac fan. The Pre better work great in an enterprise environment otherwise it’s not going to rate.
