Verizon Palm Pre Plus And Palm Pixi Plus Unboxing

Posted by Aaron Zollo on Jan 23, 2010 in Featured Articles, Unboxing | 1 comment

  We unbox the upcoming Palm Pre Plus and Palm Pixi Plus from Verizon.  My initial impressions are that these "Plus" versions of the phones are much nicer and feel better put together than their Sprint counterpart.  So far service has been excellent and the Mobile Hotspot application that allows 5 devices to tether to your WebOS device is a great addition.  Check back in the coming days for more videos and the full review.

Posted by Aaron Zollo on Jan 7, 2010 in News | 0 comments

  Palm today announced that they are adding Verizon as we all suspected to their list of US carriers.  The newest carrier to carry WebOS phones will also get upgraded versions of the what SPrint currently hs in the way of the Palm Pre Plus and Pixi Plus.  The Plus versions of the Pre and Pixi mean the phones get 16GB of memory along with the Pixi getting the added benefit of Wifi.  The devices will be available on Verizon on January 25th, 2010.  

Also of note is the addition of video recording capability to WebOS slated for release in February.  Finally the iPhone appears it will have significant competition if all goes as planned with Palm.

Palm App Catalog Hits 1000 Apps

Posted by Aaron Zollo on Jan 1, 2010 in News | 0 comments

  WebOS has a lot going for it when you put it up against the closest competitors, the iPhone and Google’s Android.  The major area it falls behind is in the tiny App Catalog of which pales in comparison.  After its first half a year or so in service there are now 1000 apps for download.  This number is not too bad when you consider the first gen. iPhone and how long it took to get any applications on it at all.  As time goes on the new Palm handsets get recognition from those involved in technology or up on the latest gadget, but they have yet to go totally mainstream.  Hopefully all of this changes soon when Palm moves its devices onto Verizon and a larger market has access to WebOS.  So as we start this new year we wish Palm the best of luck and hope Apple gets some serious competition other than Android.

  According to a recent post from BoyGeniusReport, the addition of the Palm Pixi and Pre to Verizon’s anti-iPhone arsenal are indeed coming soon.  The actual details of the whole deal are unknown at this time but we do know now that Verizon will be calling them the Pre Plus and Pixi Plus.  What the actual Plus means is currently unknown, but it could me more memory for the Pre and Wifi for the Pixi.  The Verizon WebOS devices are believed t be shipping with WebOS 1.3.5 that was released just the other day.
