Palm Pre

This is the first serious competitor to the iPhone. I just finished watching the Pre introduction video at CES and was very, very impressed with it. The software is smooth and the first true multi-tasking system I’ve seen in a mobile and dare I say, better than the iPhone. Even the wireless Touchstone induction charger is well thought out.

No word on price yet and availablity in the UK and Europe but if whichever network bags the exclusive deal and matches O2′s all-inclusive free data then this is going to be a big hit.

Alright Apple, here’s your competition. What are you going to do about it?

    I am so horribly excited about the Pre I can’t beleive it. Despite the fact that I just bought an Omnia, I’d really like to see this thing.
    I was a long time Palm OS user. Started with the 500, then Tungsten and Finally the Treo 650 which was easily the best phone I ever had.
    I know this isn’t Palm OS, but having the Palm name alone makes it highly desirable for me.

    It’s a very very well thought out interface. The way it compresses time in the calendar view is cool and the cards concept is fantastic.

    Strange they didn’t announce any prices though isn’t it?
