Submitted by Garette on Thursday January 08 2009, @11:53PM

Garette writes "Just got an email from Palm about their upcoming touch-screen phone "Palm Pre". As taken from the Pre website:
"Meet Palm Pre, a phone that's always thinking ahead to make your life easier. Pre pulls your different online calendars into one view, bringing you the information you want without having to search for it. Pre links your contacts from different sources, giving you one place to find what you need. And Pre delivers incoming messages1 and notifications in an intuitively subtle way, letting you react or respond however you want. People, events, information that matters. With Palm Pre, it'll come to you."
I had a Palm PDA a few years ago. I liked it but have since moved over to using a BlackBerry. What do fellow users think of the current and this upcoming Palm Phone when compared to BlackBerry Storm, iPhone etc...?"
