I’ve been following the live blogging of the Palm CES event today - via Engadget and everythingtreo – and also checking out some of the early reactions on Twitter and Friendfeed to the new Palm ‘Pre’ phone. I’ve seen a lot of positive stuff so far, and I have to admit some of the UI’s features look and sound pretty good.
Here’s a few of the reactions that ...
Palm: Back from the dead?
9 to 5 Mac - Apple Intelligence —
Left for dead? Not so fast! Palm's pre looks...pretty, pretty....pretty good. The Web OS, seems like it is going in the right direction. A2DP Bluetooth. Removable battery. TI's latest OMAP CPU (Cortex? - this is the thing Archos is putting in its media players)
Sprint? Well. They are the "launch partner".
Some choice photos ganked from Engadget liveblog follow:

Palm comes back with a bang: shows Pre at CES
Technology: Technology blog | guardian.co.uk —
... a mobile phone industry analyst with comScore. "They're flying into a headwind here." This is a tough market that already includes the RIM BlackBerry, Apple's iPhone, Nokia's Symbian, Microsoft's Windows Mobile, Google's Android and various others. They can't all be winners, and until now, Palm had looked like a loser. It will be interesting to see how it turns out. For informative photos and a liveblog of the Palm event, see Ryan Block at gdgt, Engadget, or Gizmodo, among others. ...
Palm Pre / webOS launch roundup
Engadget Mobile —
... The dust has begun to settle around Palm's event yesterday, and we're still sorting through all the news. Palm certainly packed a lot of "New-ness" (yet weirdly, no actual "New-ness") into its announcements yesterday, and it's pretty easy to get lost among all the Palm Pre / webOS related news. Lucky for you, we've consolidated the goods below, so feel free to experience all the Palm-related bliss you can handle. The liveblog Live from Palm's CES press conference Impressions / hands-on coverage ...
Palm Pre's "New-ness" event video now viewable
Engadget Mobile —
... Sure, you might've enjoyed the highs and lows (mostly highs) of Palm's Pre presser through the magic of written language in our liveblog of the event, but there's something about watching it unveiled in person by utterly enthused execs that can only be conveyed by video. Palm's got its own video of the event now live on its site, so grab your favorite Saturday hangover cure, pull up a recliner and start soaking up Palm's own special brand of RDF. ...
What Apple could learn from Palm's webOS
Engadget Mobile —
... In case you missed the keynote, Palm took some special moments to let everyone know that they're not trying to compete with Apple -- which is of course exactly what they're doing with ...
Donna Dubinsky steps down from Palm's board, Rajiv Dutta steps in
Engadget Mobile —
... in order to help Palm stun the world and reinvigorate itself at CES this year, and as part of that agreement, Elevation "has the right to designate an additional director for election to the Company's Board of Directors." In light of the board wishing to maintain its current size, Ms. Dubinsky freely offered to resign her spot immediately, and at least officially, her decision was not made due to any disagreement with Palm. We're also told that Elevation has designated Rajiv Dutta -- who retired as President of eBay Marketplaces and Executive VP of eBay last October -- for ...
Palm Pre review
IPhone news, updates and Iphone information —
... Yes, this is epic stuff. The Pre (and its accompanying operating system) could likely decide the fate of the company largely credited with ushering in the age of the do-everything phone. Since Palm's announcement at CES this year, news surrounding the Pre has been a veritable whirlwind of activity: rumors, half-truths, hate, love, fear-mongering, fanboyism, rampant gadget-lust... and even a little ...
Seagate launches FreeAgent Theater+ HD media player, we go hands-on
Engadget HD —
... way back at CES this year? Of course not -- you were locked onto the Palm Pre keynote. At any rate, the next generation of that very device somehow made it through the product development stage and now sits in our very hands, and we have to say, it's no more modern in person than it is in press shots. Equipped with the usual assortment of ports (HDMI, component, composite, Toslink, Ethernet and two USB) ports, the FreeAgent Theater+ HD media player gets all of its content from a ...
