Palm Pre Set to Launch on June 6
Palm Pre, a smart phone threatening to be an iPhone rival, is set to launch on June 6, 2009. Sprint’s (the phone’s maker) announcement came under speculation of trying to compete with Apple. The launching date June 6 is exactly two days before Apple’s next product launch which is said to include the new iPhone.
Palm Pre is unlike any other phone launched before because it runs on the new Palm webOS mobile platform. Unlike other high-end business phones and entertainment phones, Palm Pre promises to integrate business features with entertainment features without compromising on quality. The need for having separate phones for work and for personal use ends with Palm Pre. The phone combines your professional, social and personal information into one machine that will revolutionize the way we use wireless network.
Palm Pre runs on a very reliable 3G network and readily comes packaged with Sprint’s “Everything Data” plan. The phone is designed to optimize Everything Data’s features. Palm Pre is built to stand heavy duty multi-tasking. Because of Palm Pre’s PDA heritage, managing digital information, whether corporate or personal, is also an ease.
The Synergy function in the new Palm webOS enables you to merge your calendar, address book details and other information from multiple sites in one go. Therefore, the transition from business life to personal life is greatly reduced. You can pull out information from your corporate site and your social networking site in a systemized manner. Synergy is smart enough to distinguish when contact details from different sources (Facebook, Outlook, etc.) and merges them into one piece of data.
Sprint also announced that Palm Pre’s price is at around $200 after a $100 rebate stipulated in a two-year contract agreement. Palm Pre will be available not only in Sprint stores, but also in Radio Shack, Wal-Mart and Best Buy. Accidental damage warranty for Palm Pre is available at Amazon.com only for only $160; the warranty covers three years.
