Palm Pre and Itunes – Best Buds
From an official press release from Palm, you I-tunes faithfuls out there are in luck. Apparently the media sync function of the Pre is custom tailored for I-tunes awesomeness. So all those tunes you got brewin' on your computer or all those episodes of cartoons (I mean, Porn.) you wish your frie
Sprint Exclusive with Palm Pre Through 2009
If it was a marriage, we'd call it failure for only lasting 6 months, but when it comes to the mobile industry it's pretty much standard. Both Verizon and AT&T have now said they'll be getting the Pre. Verizon said 6 months. Sprint spokesman James Fisher simply said, "We have the Pre through 2
The Pre is Watching…
So, our intial reaction to the first leaked-photo captured via the Palm Pre was... not too shabby. I mean, obviously if you're a photography nut or just a well educated stalker you may laugh at the lack of quality when this image is zoomed. But let's be honest, those of you in those categories will
AT&T Wants the Pre
In the middle of a now famous game of "AT&T plays defense about its network troubles dealing with its own exclusive toy", CEO Randall Stephenson talked up his "interest" in the Palm Pre. The quotations were necessary because he did what we here at PMP and surely quite a few of you ultra nerds ou

Sprint Using Pre to Tout Green Product Line: Mistake?
While perusing the usual ads and paperwork we receive from Sprint and Palm, we came across an interesting picture in a Sprint ad delivered to Premier customers. They are advertising their new "green" charger - the Solio Mono Hybrid with the Palm Pre. We found this interesting, considering that, acco

On the loose! Real life Pre Sightings!
"Doc31" on the forums at PreCentral has snagged some video of his Pre. Yes, for real for real. No fakies. Check out the video. And seriously guys, drooling; keep it to a minimum. Your keyboard will thank you!
Palm Pre Shows Up on Best Buy Website
So, the Palm Pre is on Best Buy's website and, without the plan, you'd better be prepared to miss a mortgage payment. The price tag for the phone alone is $849.99. I guess that's not too much of a shock, but if you don't want Sprint, you might want to wait until someone drops theirs in the toilet (d
Playing Rebate Roulette
So it looks like we're in for another installment of the cellphone industry's favorite game, "Savings Over Convenience". As well all know, that pretty little $199 price tag comes as a result of carrier subsidization. A blessing/burden all of us, especially the phone nerds amongst us, are all too
