Can the Pre Save Palm?

I was looking forward to this phone, becuase I wanted better browsing than the blackberry offers and a physical keyboard, but this phone disappointed me.

The display should have been bigger and the banana curve pop-keyboard is a non-functional design. The designeers compromised newness for practicality.

Guys, bring out version two with a bigger display and simple slide out keyboard, as wide as on the Blackberry Curve, with a display as big as the iPhone. You'll sell a ton of them to power users, who want to be able to quickly respond to messages and also be able to read pdfs and browse pages.

And bring it out on Verizon or ATT.

I'm hoping the 3rd generation improves keyboard input. I can see it gaining greater adoption with the business community if it does.

I wish the Blackberry Bold, had a bigger screen and it offered touch a UI in addition to the keyboard.

Apple to Google, Palm: Do Not Rip Off Our iPhone IP

App's may be easier to develop, but again, just like the Palm was a hot selling device at one time, offering application and viral features, it's gone, because smartphones cam around. Teh iPhone is a great browser, but it's a compromise as far as a phone goes.

I think the iPhone is cool, but hey, I'm not a fool to piss away money, my curve does everything I need, and I'm actually thinking of ditching it and going back to a simple phone, because I don't want to be constantly reminded of something to do.

iPhone will need to come down in price,and ATT will have to lower it's data subscription costs for me to be interested in buying the iPhone.
