Palm launch Open Source Developer Program
,----[ Quote ]
| Palm has announced a programme for open source
| developers wishing to write for Palm's Linux based
| WebOS. For closed source applications the Palm developer
| programme requires an upfront fee of $99 (Â62) from
| developers, with a $50 (Â31) fee for each app that is
| published through Palm's App Catalogue. For open source
| developers both the up front fee and the per app fee is
| waived. Palm's WebOS currently only runs on Palm's Pre
| and Pixi phones; the Pre is due to be available in the
| UK from the 16th of October from O2.

Palm Pre Linux-Based Smartphone Reviewed
,----[ Quote ]
| Wi-Fi performance-to the extent it's possible to test it-is
| good. The current inability to use Wi-Fi for anything but
| Internet access is unfortunate, but we can hope that Palm
| or some third-party developer will deliver an app in the
| future that adds that capability.

The Pre and Me
,----[ Quote ]
| The Palm Pre is the first real competitor to the iPhone.
| Those who are Apple fanatics will still go with the iPhone,
| I'm sure, but this is definitely a great phone. And if you
| love how Palm approaches things, then you'll love how they
| take things to the next level with this smart phone.
|
| In the end, it really comes down to what you're interested
| in and what functionality you need. For me? The Pre is the
| answer. Just ignore those awful, awful commercials.
