Palm Pre 2


It’s such a shame, because the only problem I have with the Palm Pre is the hardware. I love webOS, it is so far the best phone OS that I’ve ever used. But I really dislike the shape and overall feel of the hardware.
New pictures and specs of the Palm Pre 2: 1GHz processor and 512MB RAM | PreCentral.net This is not impressive at all and really not what most of the WebOS community wanted. If Palm is to survive in the mobile arena the it will need to come up with much better hardware than the Pre. - techflux
