Palm Pre WebOS Phone Specs
January 8, 2009 by John
What’s better than iPhone? Check out the specs for the new Palm Pre phone powered by Palm’ latest Oprating System WebOS. The Palm Pre is a multi-touch screen device with a full vertical slide-out QWERTY keyboard. The phone is very light and surprisingly thin. The new curved form factor is totally different than any previous Palm product. In my opinion, it’s the first revolutionary Palm phone in many year! Screen resolution is superior and the slide-out keyboard is what I have been waiting for to be on an iphone!
