The original iPhone did it in ~2 1/2 months. Why would the Palm Pre be expected to have the same success as Apple's second iteration? Palm will 'earn' their sales through a great product...not by instructing their minions of mindless sheep to go buy.]]>Feb 4th 2009 5:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/Feb 4th 2009 10:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/Feb 4th 2009 10:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/Feb 4th 2009 10:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/Feb 4th 2009 3:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/Feb 4th 2009 3:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/Feb 4th 2009 9:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/2yo K800i lasts till it's release

As for an Apple v Palm lawsuit.... you clearly didn't read the brilliant artical engadget put together RE: paitents that both sides had to "counter" each other if a lawsuit was bought forward by either party. ]]>Feb 4th 2009 9:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/

I need to know so I can start camping outside the Sprint store...]]>Feb 4th 2009 10:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/Feb 4th 2009 12:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/Feb 4th 2009 10:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/Feb 4th 2009 11:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/
1) freeze up when disconnecting from the USB cable while charging in order to answer the phone.
2) periodically reboot for no good reason
3) pickup more of the background noise than what's being spoken into the mouthpiece
4) chew through a battery in a day even when the phone is hardly used
5) actually connect to the mini USB plug to charge every time it's plugged in

These are all the qualities my current Motorola Q boasts (2nd unit, as the first one fried itself two weeks after I bought it). It's a garbage phone, and I welcome its replacement.

Sprint is so crappy that their customer service sucks... shit, I messed up again. They already fired their largest call center that had the most complaints and upped their quality.

Hmm.... Sprint is sooo crappy, that I lose my signal... I can't even finish that; they have a huge network that can even roam on Verizon's.

Well... I'm lost. What's the answer?]]>Feb 4th 2009 10:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/04/palm-pre-landing-mid-march/

Sprint's Customer service is up and down, but who cares????
