Touchstone charger to be first in series of wireless accessories?

April 12th 2009 | Posted by Steven Grady

The staff of PreThinking was watching a 43 minute walk through of the Pre from tnkgirl and they found this interesting little bit of information slip from one of the Palm reps: “The Touchstone is the name of a entire line of products. This is the first Touchtone product in that family. This is the [...]

I play devil’s advocate: The CTIA fiasco

April 8th 2009 | Posted by Steven Grady

Most of you know that we weren’t allowed to fully experience the Palm Pre at CTIA because Palm wanted to control the environment. This angered many people, including the staff of MyPre. We wanted to play with the Pre, get our hands on it and experience the iPhone-killing abilities of Palm’s savior. But we weren’t allowed [...]

Why we might not see the Pre until mid-May

April 6th 2009 | Posted by Steven Grady

Samsung launched the follow up to the best-selling Sprint phone ever at CTIA last week. The Samsung Instinct S30 was announced and demoed for the public; it will be released on April 19th. This is not the best news for those that desire the Palm Pre.

If you think about it, the Palm Pre is the [...]

Pre-view: Sprint Navigation on Palm Pre

April 3rd 2009 | Posted by Steven Grady

We went back for a third time to see the Palm Pre, because let’s face it, we can’t get enough of that device. This time, Sprint and Palm showed us something that they were unsure if it would work indoors: the Navigation. It looks sweet.

If you’ve experienced Sprint Navigation by TeleNav, you’ll know [...]

Pre-View: MyPre’s hands-on with Classic app

April 2nd 2009 | Posted by Steven Grady

We got our own video of a hands-on demonstration of the Classic application on the Palm Pre. The Classic app will run like any other “card” on the Pre, and can be used with other apps running in the background. This application will be able to support all of the PalmOS applications, which are [...]

Pre-view: FlightView application

April 1st 2009 | Posted by Steven Grady

Another application that, as far as we can tell, Palm only showed to us, was FlightView. It’s an interesting application that allows you to track flights and give you live flight information.

If you’re waiting for a friend or loved one’s flight, FlightView will give you up-to-minute information and live tracking on their flight on a [...]

Pre-view: Sprint TV

April 1st 2009 | Posted by Steven Grady

I have Sprint TV on my Instinct, and it’s been rough going. There have been numerous updates for it, and they’ve never really hashed out all the bugs.  Not true on the Pre. Sprint TV was clear and smooth. It was beautiful really.

We were watching ABC Mobile TV on the Pre’s gorgeous display, and it [...]

Pre-view: Amazon Music Store

April 1st 2009 | Posted by Steven Grady

DRM-Free baby. Sync up music from your computer onto the Pre as if it were a thumb-drive. Take the music you’ve downloaded onto your Pre and put them on your computer. It’s that easy.

The Amazon music store looks gorgeous. The interface on the Pre makes navigating Amazon really easy, with all of your expected search [...]
