Ah, WiFi on the pixi is just what I've been waiting for!

Does anyone know if Palm's wifi is crippled like Blackberry's - where you can't use WiFi on most Apps?]]>Jan 6th 2010 11:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/Jan 7th 2010 1:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://bit.ly/palm-pre-plus-pixi-plus-details

Second, the Pre with better build quality would be awesome. Its still a great phone, with current specs. I'd say that a Pre with an increase in build quality would be a pretty big win.

For me, anyways.]]>Jan 6th 2010 8:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/

The 16gb bump seems decent although if they can't fix the iTunes syncing more often it's somewhat moot (although the way my Pre finds music I just dump into the root filesystem is nice).

If they can fix the biggest Pre issues that I've griped about in the past I'd consider moving to Verizon. I like Sprint's network and coverage but their tech support is so abysmally bad (even now after all the improvements) that I can't deal with them much longer. A friend's Pre needed to be reset on Sprint's end and even with my girlfriend being an ex-Sprint employee the techs wouldn't listen to her and it was a 2 hour ordeal. They treat their employees like crap, too. I know that the big V sucks (I was with them for years before Sprint) but it's just choosing the lesser of two evils.]]>Jan 6th 2010 7:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/Jan 6th 2010 8:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/Jan 6th 2010 7:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/Jan 6th 2010 7:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/

I wanted to love the Pre. The OS is beautiful. But the actual hardware is junk. Feels like a toy.

Also, the thing has more physical keys than a lot of top-tier smartphone including iPhone and NexusOne.]]>Jan 6th 2010 7:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/Jan 6th 2010 7:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/I don't know much about the Nexus One. But if it's anything like the Sprint Hero then year I would. The Hero has incredible build quality, a great little scroll ball, physical buttons, a nice soft touch coating to it and multitouch screen. It's a beautiful phone.
WebOS would be great on it. ]]>Jan 6th 2010 8:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/
I am not getting this. Since when does the amount of physical keys a phone has correlate with its being designated "top tier"? As far as I see it, removing buttons does nothing positive except POSSIBLY improving aesthetics.]]>Jan 6th 2010 8:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/Jan 6th 2010 11:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/oh, there is a wifi... haha]]>Jan 6th 2010 7:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/verizon-bound-palm-pre-plus-and-pixi-plus-specs-leaked/Jan 6th 2010 7:52PM
