Certainly the developer support will need to be there to be as good as the full package the iPhone now offers. It is the first product that has a chance.
The iPhone was game-changing, it was the device that Palm should have evolved into 2 years ago. The Pre is game-changing, but in a subtler way, and I fear that its improvements will simply be assimilated into the iPhone and Palm will die forever.

And as far as the better...hardware...well maybe for the next few hours, but there is a good chance for an iPhone announcement in a bit that could wipe that away. Plus, I prefer the soft keyboard and the bigger screen. I switched to the iPhone from a Treo 700p. The soft keyboard is much easier to use and a lot more versitile. OS...its subjective and again, new OS on the way shortly from Apple.

WebOS is game-changing. Apple will address it. It is not a matter of units sold (as Apple knows) it is a metter of offering the most features in the simplest package. WebOs is better than iPhone OS 3.0. That changes the game.

I mean, if the Pre had come out 25 years ago the lines would have also been huge.
Not trying to be snarky, just confused if I'm missing your point.

We're at the point where Apple could very well put out a piece of turd wrapped in aluminum and people would still line up for it.
Props to Apple, but I'm slowly losing all faith in humans.

"has a prior history of producing wares that don't matter anymore."
Proven by the fact that you are commenting on a article about the Palm Pre launch, right?
I know you catch my drift, "machead", but for those that don't:
If they don't matter why did you even click on this story, and then comment on it?
There is no logical explanation, besides the fact that you. are. full. of. it.

P.S. Try not to read so much in the user name. It really won't help in any discussions.

There was even a webpage on Apple's website, that allowed you to check which stores had stock before you set out.

Palm just came late to the game with a device that literally spawned off the iphone. The idea of phones such as the Pre, G1 or the Storm are all based off of what the iPhone has created.
