More Palm Pre emulator videos emerge: universal search, calendar, and email (oh my)
Oh look, another set of Palm Pre / webOS emulator videos care of TheInvisibleMan of PalmPreForum.org. This time we get a new two-part Q&A session and a glance at the calendar, PDF viewer, phone, e-mail, and universal search, which as the name suggests not only searches locally on the phone but also lets you run that query through Google, Google Maps, Wikipedia, and Twitter -- something iPhone OS 3.0's local-only spotlight frustratingly lacks. That said, we can see ourselves being bothered by the apparent inability to open PDFs directly from the browser, and it looks like the email client might not group threads together. A major bummer if that's the case, but this is an early emulator, so we're holding onto the tiniest bit of hope that changes somewhere down the line. Like before, we've gone ahead and grouped all the new videos in a playlist after the break.
Plethora of Palm Pre interface videos emerge from leaked emulator
Palm Pre secrets? That's very quickly becoming a thing of the past. After getting some pretty good shots of webOS last week, the "invisible man" from PalmPreForum.org has uploaded an absolute ton of videos -- fifteen in all, at last count -- showcasing the interface from a leaked emulator given out to early developers (available for Windows, Mac, and Linux, in case you were wondering). Browser, tasks, memos, YouTube, Google Maps, backup, settings, copy and paste -- frankly, we're still wrapping our heads around all of them, and while it's a shame we can't see any multitouch gesture since he's limited to a mouseclick, we're not gonna be choosy here. Clear your afternoon schedule and check out the video playlist we've embedded after the break -- and not to worry, the audio clears up right around the 9th video.
