Another Peek at the Pre

Posted on 29. Jan, 2009 by in Mobile, Tech

Palm’s VP of design apparently did not read our blog yesterday, as he seems extremely confident and calm in this video of him showing off the Pre. Either that, or he has a really good poker face, and he thinks Apple will flinch first. Yea, that is more likely than him not reading the best tech blog on the Web.

    What are we talking about?

    Sure, this guy is confident, now. They built the Palm Pre to take on an aging iPhone by putting in a processor a bit better than the current iPhone has. When the new iPhone hits the streets in June with twice as much processing power, graphics processing power and twice as much screen resolution as the current iPhone, this guy’s jaw is going to hit the floor. Palm is shooting at a moving target and a company that can design it’s own support chips. Not to mention as to whether the Palm Pre is going to be able to use all of it’s UI gestures. It’s not going to be easy for Palm to grab market share from Apple’s iPhone. There should be about 20,000 apps in the App Store by then and a heck of a lot more games. Hardware alone is not going to capture the hearts of potential smartphone buyers.

    OK, I agree with most of your points, but cmon, its not all hardware. The card interface as well as Synergy are pretty darn awesome. Anyway, as for the patents, you might want to read this http://technmarketing.com/2009/01/29/palm-might-sue-apple/
