Back in October 2009, I decided to upgrade my Treo and went with the Palm Pre platform.  You might have read my post on this topic iPhone vs Palm Pre<\/a>.      There were 4 things I was a bit disappointed with the software\/device.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. What\u2019s up with  no Flash capabilities?   (same with iPhone) <\/li>\n
  2. No zoom for the camera  (same as iPhone) <\/li>\n
  3. No capability to record video, even though the device is very capable. <\/li>\n
  4. Please open up the Pre App Store to the web-community. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Well, I was just reading the summary (and later details) on the Palm Briefing session from CES.<\/p>\n

    YEAHHH!!! \u2013 I am excited about the announcements and the news!  <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Flash plugin for the Pre browser will be posted  in February to the community <\/li>\n
    2. Video Recording capability also coming up in the same time frame <\/li>\n
    3. REAL games are now available on the WebOS platform <\/li>\n
    4. Pre App Catalog  and Distribution is now open to the web-community <\/li>\n
    5. Also cool: \u201cApps are no longer siloed, they share content, they can share data\u2026<\/em>\u201d <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

       <\/p>\n

      Very cool  and thankful Palm is listening again to their customer base.  <\/p>\n

      More on this at: engadget.com<\/a> and others. <\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      PS  \u2013 I almost forgot:   Palm Mobile Hotspot\u2026 Just download this app, install it on your device, and you can use your device to connect to the internet… up to five different devices can connect.     -  that is totally cool for adhoc  team (or family) connectivity where not available. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
