Sprint/Palm Pre Wants Apple/AT&T's Smart Phone Market Share
Sprint/Palm Pre Wants Apple/AT&T's Smart Phone Market Share

Well, there's always some sort of technological war happening, whether it's search engines or smart phones.  And now it looks like Sprint and the Palm Pre want to take the smart phone market share away from Apple and AT&T.  As the first-gen iPhone contracts expire, Sprint is promoting a way to lure in those users and get them a Palm Pre AND save them up to $1,200 (with a 2-year contract).  Get the scoop at cnet.com.

I'm also noticing, as I read reviews and previews of the Pre, that there's a bit of a backlash against Apple's virtual/touchscreen keyboard, at least with the critics.  This is another example of them praising Pre's "real" keyboard option.

Comments:

That is all fine and dandy till the keyboard on your Pre stops working. As happened to mine.

Go Sprint!! I've picked up a Samsung Omnia for Verizon... these touch screens are cool, once you master the art of locking that fracking screen... otherwise you'll find yourself running lots o' apps!

Once pocket incident, I had 6 twitter sessions going after walking for 15 minutes and having it in my pocket.

Today, 1 twitter, 1 google maps, and something else was trying to start up after i put it in my pocket for about 5 minutes...

I hope I don't call China or Europe... Eh, I'll be censored if I try to call China probably.

Some days, I just want to see how far I can skip this thing across the pond... and yet, on occasion, it's cool to have and use.

I'm getting used to it.

... Where's the NASCAR section around here?
