Palm Pre Reviewed

mlingojones writes "The Palm Pre doesn't come out until June 6th, but the Boy Genius Report not only got their hands on one but also posted a review of it. They liked webOS, but not the hardware (especially the keyboard). Overall, they feel that 'once people are able to play a real unit themselves, there will be more than a lot of happy Palm Pre customers.'" On the downside, this review says the keyboard is lousy.

    It's just... it's unspeakably horrific.

    Autocorrection can be disabled, you know.

    iPhone OS is Mac OS X core. I does multitask, right now.

    There's this random application crashing sometimes, certainly. I wonder how you get to know it's about lack of memory and not badly written code.

    Anyways, if you're going to throw away your iPhone, just let me know where.
