“Mad Men” across the water
We knew that Palm webOS was powerful -- what with its ability to multitask and to share information across apps and all -- but apparently it has an additional power that we didn't anticipate: the ability to inspire awesome videos from our fans.
Arno Keifl and Sven Adolph are a couple of 22-year-old students living in Germany with an interest in the Internet and consumer electronics. Palm webOS was a natural subject for a short video project. And they didn't just shoot images of the phone -- they dug into the SDK emulator to capture screen images, and built an app using Ares that you can see in the kitchen scene.
(By the way, you may have noticed the phone in the shoot was a first-generation Palm Pre. As a small thank you, we're sending Anro and Sven the latest Palm Pre Plus for O2 in Germany.)
