Palm Pre unboxing

Pit has been a long time coming, but finally we had our hands on Palm (NSDQ: PALM) Pre Sprint (NYSE: S)! You know what that means ... Unbox photos! Just in case you have not had your fill of Palm box pre-shots and photos in hand, take a look at our gallery Unbox.

For the rock you live, this is the first Palm smartphone from Palm to run Palm WebOS whole new system. The finger-friendly WebOS features true multi-tasking and working well with the ability (not Squishy) touch screen on Palm Pre. SWIP-gestures used to navigate around the device, while a slide-out physical QWERTY keyboard handles text input all your needs. The 3-megapixel auto-focus camera (with flash) and 8 GB of storage on board sweeten the agreement even more.

The exploration of the Web is great, but slower than the iPhone 3GS. Multi-touch-integration has been demonstrated that useful. And the tic-tac-sized keys are easier to use (even if still a little 'clumsy). The chassis of wireless charging dock awesome. It is not exactly ga is free with the use of USB cables, but it's a darn good first step in the right direction!

Sync with iTunes is very simple (I have not updated my iTunes again - it would be the death of pre-synchronization capability). Missing Sync (App available in the catalog), the rest of my preferences sync information at your fingertips.
