The Palm Pre Will Be an iPhone Killer

,----[ Quote ]
| After seemingly disappearing off the face of the earth while companies like 
| Nokia and RIM released multiple phones, and while Apple's iPhone 3G has 
| continued to enjoy immense popularity, Palm has finally hit back. The Pre is 
| considered a make-or-break release for Palm — the smartphone is built on an 
| entirely new Linux-based operating system called webOS.

Why Palm’s WebOS Could Shake up the Netbook World

,----[ Quote ]
| 1. WebOS is the most attractive and intuitive Linux OS. Ever. Yes,
| distributions like Ubuntu and Linux Mint look nice, and I’m sure Android will
| make some waves in the netbook arena (Asus is rumored to be working on a
| system) but WebOS is far and away the most consumer-friendly mobile OS I’ve
| seen. It just looks polished and slick–and no offense–doesn’t feel like
| you’re using Linux. Given that Microsoft is considering selling crippled
| netbooks with a Starter edition of Windows 7 that can run only three apps
| simultaneously (presumably in the hopes of upselling to a premium version)
| Dell or another PC manufacturer would be wise to either inquire about
| licensing WebOS or acquire Palm outright.
