This is new Palm (with new high res interface) pretty cool looking:


Look at the screen, that's not shitty Palm OS, it's grand spankin' new Palm OS. I had a Palm TX, and it was actually pretty damn good, though the internet sucked ass on it. Now that semi-OK internet is standard on all the iPhone clones, that should bode well for this, especially since it uses web aps.

My Palm pilot was damn good, the screen was clearer than my current iPod or the iphone from what I've seen. The battery life was also good. And I could touch it without it being in some damn case.

Might just consider this.

1. They call it the Palm Pre, I think the name sucks...

though it does look nice.

It also has a keyboard. The browser is WebKit based like Safari, and it's supposed to be responsive. Palm has lots of experience in this area, so this is kind of exciting.

Gizmodo calls it, "Simply Amazing."
