Finally, after months of waiting and speculating, PCmag.com has one of
a handful of Palm Pre’s that were given to analysts ahead of today’s
official launch. Mobile analyst extraordinaire Sascha Segan took the
rather remarkable device through a battery of tests and is declaring it
“excellent.” PCMag has his full review, a look at the unusual Touchstone charger, and even a hands-on test of the critically important MotionApps Classic, the Palm OS emulator environment.
That last app will let you run old Palm OS apps on the new webOS.
(PCMag’s tests show, though, that this is still a work in progress.) I also explain why the Pre, though an amazing smartphone, is not really competing with Apple’s iPhone—at least not yet.
