Palm Pre Plus+

Are you a current Pre owner? Do you feel like you were used?

A few days  ago Palm inc. released a newer model to their lineup – the Palm Pre Plus. It will ship with twice the internal memory (up to 16GB now), a standard induction cover for touchstone charging (previously an option), and the navigation button on the front panel was removed (which I think makes it look worse). One of the other minor adjustments was the removal of the orange on the keyboard.

As a Pre owner, I feel used. I paid $200 for a Pre then the monthly service fee of $99 for about 6 months. I was very happy with it besides the battery issues.. But now that I hear they are coming out with a better, more powerful phone just months after I got mine, I am pretty mad. Palm should of fixed all of this before even releasing the device! What are your opinions on the matter?

Now, if you think you can get cheap cell phone in India Only ($15 – Reliance) then your Wrong. Walmart is going to give you a pretty good deal for Palm Pre for a price of $79.99!Picture 8

You need to go through a rebate of $100 to get it for the $79.99 and Pre comes with a 2 year contract. Well this surely slashes amazon offering Palm Pre for $100.

You can order it online it from here. This $100 mail in Rebate goes through Let’s Talk, the one which handles wireless sales for Walmart. Seems like the recession effect has been felt by the customers which the companies too time to understand but finall they did understand!

iTunes 8.2.1 Back on Palm web OS 1.1 : But how?

Apple’s Latest release of iTunes 8.2.1 had disabled Palm Sync but the web OS 1.1 re-enabled it! Anyone wondering how?

Palm’s Web OS simply identifies itself as a Apple’s Product by  using Apple’s vendor id as it’s own.  Here’s what you will see when you plug a Palm Pre into your iTunes 8.2.1

Product ID:    0×8002
Vendor ID:    0x05ac  (Apple Inc.)
Version:    0.16
Manufacturer:    Palm Inc.

So it’s clear, that’s the Trick Palm is using. Earlier, before Apple blocked the device it was a Palm’s Product named iPod but now it’s a Apple’s Product named iPod.

But the Vendor Sign-up form clearly states that

Unauthorized use of assigned or unassigned USB Vendor ID Numbers and associated Product ID Numbers are strictly prohibited.

Well the fight get’s more and more interesting with every step, we’ll keep you updated on this!

Well, if you read my last post about Apple breaking Palm’s heart by disabling iTune’s syncing capability with Palm Pre then here’s a good new for those sad Pre users.

Yes, Palm Pre’s Syncing with iTunes is back!

With Palm’s Latest update WebOs 1.1 it re-allows you to connect your Palm Pre with iTunes! Rejoice Pre users! So if you’ve not updated your Palm Pre then better get your Over-the-Air update done to get back into action with iTunes!

The Companies Blog post contained a line which said 

Oh, and one more thing: Palm webOS 1.1 re-enables Palm media sync. That’s right — you once again can have seamless access to your music, photos and videos from the current version of iTunes (8.2.1).

Let’s wait for Apple’s answer to this!

Ad wars are going around everywhere,  may it be between Pepsi and Coke or Apple and Microsoft. But one thing is clear that this war between Sprint and AT&T for the iPhone and Palm pre is different than these normal ones.

In this Ad, Sprint tells that you can’t run applications in the background but with the Palm Pre you can. Also you can save upto $1200 by switching over to the Palm Pre. Now i am loving this.
