Review: Body Glove Side Case

August 31st 2009 | Posted by Derek Kessler

Body Glove Side Case

The Body Glove Side Case is a case that manages the difficult feat of being attractive and visually interesting cases while still being subtle enough to not call too much attention to itself. Made from soft and sturdy scuba material with a strong magnetic closure, the Body Glove Side Case is going to keep your Pre securely in place, but the case’s relatively thin shell may not protect it from hard impacts. That said, it’s a more than adequate case for most and quite adequately will keep your phone at the ready and in style.

Lexi-Comp medical database app coming to webOS

August 31st 2009 | Posted by Derek Kessler

Lexi-CompLexi-CompLexi-Comp

Medical database company Lexi-Comp has announced that they are developing a webOS version of their highly-rated app. The Lexi-Comp app has been available for Palm OS, Windows Mobile, and BlackBerry OS for years and recently launched on the iPhone. The Lexi-COMPLETE database suite includes drug tables with ingredients and side-effects, interaction matrices, drug allergy diagnosis, and assistive databases for pregnancy, pediatrics, pharmacogenomics (say that ten times fast), and more.

Lexi-Comp’s software on other platforms is available on a subscription basis and is regularly updated with new information (it’s safe to assume the same will be true of a webOS version). They are currently planning on a Fall 2009 release for Lexi-Comp for webOS, so you medical professionals rocking webOS shouldn’t have to wait too much longer.

Thanks to Dr. Beers for the tip!

PalmCast Live Tonight, 8pm Eastern – the TiPb Invasion

August 31st 2009 | Posted by Dieter Bohn

We’ll be on again at 8pm Eastern tonight for another round of PalmCast Live!

This week the venerable Rene Ritchie of The iPhone Blog will join Derek and myself to talk about a subject near and dear to everybody’s heart: iPhone vs Pre.  Rene took his first look at a Pre last week during the Bell launch, so we’ll get his thoughts on that, too.

Have questions for us? Tweet them in to @precentral with the hashtag #palmcast and we’ll answer as many as is reasonable.

The PreCentral.net Store, our sponsor, is providing yet another prize for the folks that watch us live tonight. The prize this time around: a Seidio Innocase Holster and Innocase combo pack! Together they’re a $60 value, but you can get a package for only $49.72, or you can take a shot at winning on during the live show tonight.

We’ll see you right here!
