While this is a very well designed phone and will be full of the usual Palm innovations, it is (like the iPhone), really targetted at the US and will be technically obsolete in Europe by June. Just compare the specs to the Samsung Omnia HD for example that has a massive OMLED display, 8MP camera, HD video recording and enough screen real estate to emulate much of WebOS through the browser. I think the Pre will do well in the US, but here, people will gravitate towards Android and the Nokia N97, in particular after the Samsung i7500 Android handset arrives. Palm should have upped the spec of the camera and included an FM radio. Currently, the phone is too much about business (so going against the Blackberry) and not enough about fun.

This phone is NO-WHERE NEAR ugly.... You people need to get out more. iPhone is NOT the only phone in the world. Personally speaking, WebOS makes OSX appear outdated.
...Plain & simple.

The phone looks gorgeous!

Looks big at first...but Look at it on YouTube and on the Palm site...phone actually looks slim.
I think this phone may be the 1st in giving the iPhone some real competition!

A few changes and this phone would be 'perfect' (well, in my opinion anyway...)!
First, take out the huge internal memory and add a hot-swap micro sd card slot.
Second, add primary and secondary video recording.
Third, change qwerty keyboard to slide out horizontally instead of vertically.
If those changes are implemented on the next Pre, maybe called the Palm Post (lol), then I am going to be all over it.
