Palm Pre WebOS 1.3.1 update available now
webOS 1.3.1 was always destined to come right around the launch of the Pixi , but it's surprised us by showing its face early. No app catalog bombshells here, but there are a slew of more minor fixes and updates that should make users experience a great deal smoother. Is this the update that final...

Unofficial patch lets you hang up Palm Pre calls by closing the slider
You know how easy and natural it is to hang up a call on a cellphone by sliding it closed or flipping it shut? It's a small satisfaction that's been lost on touchscreen-only phones, but it would seem to still make sense on something like, say, the Palm Pre -- just not to Palm, it seems. Well, it lo...

Palm Pre now available on O2 UK

Keepin' it real fake, part CCXXXVIII: Palm Pre knockoff doesn't know what it wants to be when it grows up
Yes, this was only a matter of time, and we're a little surprised we didn't see one earlier. Regardless, this is the Palm Pre knockoff we've been waiting for. Seemingly called just iPhone +QWERTY -- this KIRF is being marketed as just that -- a real business phone with a hybrid identity blendi...

GSM Palm Pre to launch on Telcel in Mexico, feature storage expansion?
Well, this is interesting: we'd been under the impression that Telefonica had pretty much wrapped up a global exclusive on the GSM Palm Pre under the O2 and Movistar brands, but here we are, looking at two videos which claim that the Pre will launch in Mexico under rival América Móvil's Tel...

The Palm Pre is scheduled to make its big GSM debut on O2 in Europe in just a few weeks, and it looks like final production units are making their way into the wild -- these shots of a German Pre complete with final box art and a localized keyboard just hit the wires.

Bell's Palm Pre commercial couldn't be more Apple if it had an Orba Squara soundtrack
Far from being creepy this time around, the latest Palm Pre ad -- this one specifically for Bell's Canadian customer base -- is familiar. Very familiar. Plain white backdrop? Check. Peppy male narrator? Check. Hip, upbeat music? Check. Mysterious hands showing off mobile apps and other smar...

Palm Pre now available from Sprint online, activity avoided
Hey, it's hot out there. While you could lather-up into a deep dish of epidermal man-gravy by trucking on over to the nearest brick-and-mortar , why not kick back on-line with Sprint for that new Palm Pre purchase? Sure, you'll still have to mail-in the $100 rebate, but last we checked, lick...

Palm Pre Touchstone sold early, for some reason
CA by Nilay Patel, posted Jun 2nd 2009 at 5:36PM We're not sure what good the Touchstone inductive-charging dock and rubberized back cover will do you without an actual, you know, Pre, but it looks like at least one Sprint store is selling the things ...

Palm Pre User Guide: the highlights, so far
When word that Sprint Gurus had gotten hold of the Palm Pre User Guide came across our desks yesterday, we couldn't wait to get our eyes all over it... and then we saw that it was almost as long as Infinite Jest . Okay, we kid, it's not as bad as all that -- just 344 pages of heretofore unseen glorious t...

HTC Snap snapped with larger battery, Sprint insignia, June 7th ...
CA Palm Pre anyone?! While true, they are nice filler to pass the time while we wait. Precious will be ours shortly. We must wait. Agreed, the world isn't going to be set on fire by yet another candybar phone. I want a Pre now. So badly. ...

CA The list includes 5 cases (3 acrylic, 1 leather, 1 labeled "Palm Pre case") and the Touchstone charging kit which lists for a whopping $69.99 -- the same price already rumored. Really Palm, $70? We've been inductive charging our SoniCare toothbrush for ...

Pandora, Amazon, other third-party apps demoed on Palm Pre
CA First off, we saw a NASCAR app, perfect for die-hard fans (but really, even more perfect for Sprint's track record of sponsoring NASCAR events) that culls video highlights, driver profiles, and more. Next, we were treated to a brief look at the Pre's ...

Video: Nyko Wand Wii remote flung wildly in Wii Bowling
While focused on little gizmos like the Palm Pre at CES, we somehow missed the opportunity to play with Nyko's Wiimote wannabe back in January. Thankfully, the peripheral company was on hand here in Germany with its full lineup, and we dropped in for a few snapshots as well as a hilarious vis...

TealOS brings Pre experience pre-Pre
When we saw those bizarre images of a Centro seemingly running webOS a few days ago, we declared that it could've been someone "hard at work on a webOS skin for Palm OS." Turns out that's exactly what was going on -- and after watching a video of just how thorough the makeover is, we're pretty bl...
