Palm Pre in-depth impressions, video, and huge hands-on gallery
Engadget (subscribe) | yesterday | Technology
We just sat down with Palm for a more in-depth look at the device, and here are our takeaways. First off, the software and hardware they're showing right now aren't the final versions. They're updating and tweaking as we speak, so some of the features haven't been implemented yet. Our take? The UI is incredibly well thought out and smooth. Animations going in and out of apps, and all of the menus... -

However, any advantage is bound to end there as that integrated lens and tiny sensor are... - see all discussions
