Yeah this is kind of a slap in the face to Sprint IMO.

Yes I know Sprint has had both devices exclusively for months now but still. You'd think Palm would be nice/grateful enough to share the updated versions with Sprint as well as Verizon.]]>Jan 7th 2010 2:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/Jan 7th 2010 2:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/Jan 7th 2010 3:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/

ARRGGGG!!!!! hate palm]]>Jan 7th 2010 8:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://bit.ly/palm-pre-plus-pixi-plus-details

I concur about the storage capacity.. 16GB is kind of moot in my opinion.]]>Jan 11th 2010 8:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/
Congrats Palm, I was totally ready to get whatever new device you were putting out come this summer. Now someone else is getting my business. I'm sure a lot of other Sprint customers will feel the same way.]]>Jan 7th 2010 2:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/
Not exactly. I literally just got my Pixi delivered today. Sure, I would have loved to have WiFi, but I'm saving at least $20/month by using it on Sprint. Not to mention my experience with VZ's customer service was terrible, VZ has their crazy $350 cancellation fee, and even after your two years are fulfilled you still owe them money if you want to change carriers.

And don't forget with Sprint calls to ALL mobile phones are free. So in this case if the phone you want is the Pixi Sprint is the better (and cheaper) choice in carriers.

Oh, and in case anyone was wondering I named my Pixi "Magnus Von Dynotron" to make up for the effeminate name.]]>Jan 7th 2010 3:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/
And is Palm gonna announce anything better than these 2 devices? I hope so cuz if not that would be a failure in my opinion....Surely they've got the Pre2 in their pockets....]]>Jan 7th 2010 2:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/Jan 7th 2010 2:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/Jan 7th 2010 2:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/
Yeah you come to expect that from Apple.

Not to sure if it's going to work for Palm though.

I was expecting a Pre 2 to be honest. Or at least a new form factor that utilizes webOS.

And I knew about the 2 phones coming to AT&T. I was just wondering if Palm was gonna say that it was these 2 coming months later....

Kinda disappointed to be honest.]]>Jan 7th 2010 2:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/Jan 7th 2010 2:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/Not to mention Nexus One...]]>Jan 7th 2010 2:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/Jan 7th 2010 2:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/ Pre IMO, I just wish it wasn't so underpowered.

Okay, I have had Sprint service since 2002, and have NEVER had any problems with service and am loyal because of that and lower-than-average pricing tiers.

The hardware lineup has always impressed me:
From the first camera phone and color screen phones, to the slimmest form factors and best PDA phones from 2003-2008 (Treo 300/600, Hitachi G1000 mammoth phone, HTC introduction: 6600 - 6800 etc.) Sprint was the place to go for the latest and greatest hardware. Say what you want, but the Palm Pre is a great phone and Sprint nabbed it with exclusivity (until spring of course)

NOW, Sprint is majorly upsetting me by providing little choice for a power user hungry for new technology. I am so tempted to switch to another carrier to upgrade my outdated HTC Touch Pro. Look, T-Mobile just got the HTC HD2 and Nexus One. AT&T has the iPhone, and Verizon has the Droid, Nexus One in spring, and other cool PDAs announced in 1H 2010 (including a major refresh of the Pre - which I love the webOS)

I'll give Sprint a few more months to impress me for 2010. So far, Sprint has been awfully quiet except for a new eReader (?) and new WiMAX/4G routers and cards.

I wish Sprint would hear me and others with this concern and start offering better flagship devices! ]]>Jan 7th 2010 3:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/
Really? Sprint hasn't impressed you so far this year? In the 7 days they've had to?

Come on. Your complaints are unfounded, for a start Sprint's got the Hero and the Moment (the latter of which I own), which are both commendable Android units. Snapdragon phones are soon to follow, no doubt.]]>Jan 7th 2010 4:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/palm-pixi-plus-wifi-equipped-and-heading-to-verizon/
