5 Best Palm Pre Features That iPhone Can’t Beat
,----[ Quote ]
| 1. Linux-based webOS
|
| With webOS, the Palm Pre offers true multitasking capabilities that will
| enable users to run multiple applications at the same time. You can easily
| and fluidly switch between running applications (just like swapping cards) on
| Palm Pre's touchscreen display. Meanwhile, the latest iPhone OS 3.0 still has
| a very limited multitasking feature.

Palm's Linux secret makes the Pre
,----[ Quote ]
| You're lucky that you missed the review I had written of Palm's Pre after
| working with it for six weeks. I couldn't see the attraction. The $299 that
| Sprint charges to let you out of the store with the Pre isn't justified by
| the phone's out-of-the-box features, and the anemic App Catalog presents few
| opportunities to elevate the device to the capabilities of others in its
| lofty price range. The Pre isn't a bad phone, but it's simply not worth the
| $200 to $250 premium over the BlackBerry Curve, the T-Mobile G1, and the
| iPhone 3G.

| I cannot finish without making a comment about the fact that Palm has
| concluded the super-secret early access SDK program and made the Palm WebOS
| SDK available to all registered developers. This is an important milestone
| and will begin to reveal the story about how well WebOS will be received by
| the developer community at large. What I find interesting is how similar
| WebOS’s approach is to PhoneGap’s approach.

Palm's Mojo Risin'
,----[ Quote ]
| Palm issued a public release of the Mojo software development kit for its new
| webOS operating system, in what could possibly be a response to leaks of the
| SDK in June. The SDK, given a limited release in April, had been slated for
| public release by the end of summer. Palm's take is that the public release
| follows the success of its early access program. "After a successful early
| access program, Palm's Mojo Software Development Kit is available to all
| interested app developers," begins the announcement on Palm's blog by Online
| Communications Director Jon Zilber.

Palm Pre Dances Nicely with Linux

| Fortunately, there are options that work quite well on most mainstream Linux
| distributions. Rhythmbox is the default music player for Ubuntu, and it
| recognizes the Palm Pre as a music device.

| What it is: The touchscreen Pre is Palm's latest entrant into the smartphone
| market, and includes all of the features users would expect from today's
| smartphones: a compact size, e-mail access (including Exchange), Web browser,
| multimedia (music and videos) player, digital camera, embedded GPS and the
