    I want to see how devs will take advantage of those physical keyboards and the Gesture area!

    I don't think the Palm Pre is as powerful as the iPhone, given that it's based around things such as CSS and HTML

    yeah they said the apps are all based on HTML and Javascript - No flash or real Java. I guess if devs can code their games in those, they might release them, but i doubt they'd be any good.

    Anyway, who cares this is an iphone/ipod touch site!

    Exactly. I keep my sites to themselves. Like Crackberry.com, here, iPTF, and others, I don't mention the others.

    Darn it, I just did.

    Actually this phone is quiet the break through Palm has been needing to get back into the market. I believe (from reading threads) that many iPhone owners actually owned a Palm Treo as I did. Really liked it because you could use all the functions with only one hand (how many phones can do that?) and had 3rd party apps/games you could install just like the iPhone/Touch has now (but not as good quality of course). As far as rip-off, Palm was way ahead of Apple in regards to apps/games being installed on the phone. (I spent over 6 months refining it to my own specifications by the way). Your correct in the style/cosmetics dept though they do resemble each other and I understand in that respect of what you mean. The Palm Treo was a very user friendly phone and (sniff..) miss mine very much but alas I had to change carriers because moved to upstate NY and reception was terrible. Anyway Kamazar, just thought to enlighten you on a little history of the Palm phones.

    Edit: Uhh....Think I better add that I love my Apple Touch just as much (or more)
