So I love the iphone 3g. I love everything about it from the internet down to the enormous amount of apps available.
With that said, I just got the chance to play around with a palm pre and I am very very impressed. Web browsing is almost identical to the iphone and being able to run multiple programs at once is something that I never knew I wanted until that first time my thumb crossed the button that brings up the program switcher.
Apps seem to run smoothly, email was quick and painless for all of my email addresses from work's outlook pushed based down to my personal gmail accounts. The keyboard feels a little weird at first because the buttons are so small and have a rubbery feel to them, but after playing around for about an hour, it feels very natural and I didn't have to look at the keyboard to type out what I wanted to say.
Lastly, I love palm. I owned a couple of the original greyscale palms back in the day and continued to buy them through the color screen days. I just like how solid their products and software are. Having a smartphone that is a little more user friendly than the old palm phones is nice and I love the new os.
10/10 easily.
Very nice job Palm. I may have to convince my wife to switch us to Sprint
