Waited in line here in Tampa, Florida and could not be happier. Probably the greatest phone I have ever used.

Thank you Palm

I got my phone today, more impressive then i thought. showed 2 i phone users and one is already thinking about trading. Iphone looks big and bulky in comparison.

i logged in my email to start the phone. My brother called and his picture came up, totally shocked me. Had no idea it pulled in facebook pics to contacts. Also sent someone a picture and they were amazed at the quality. Full screen, hi res pics. This phone ripped off everything i phone does, and made it better.

Got one in Richmond, VA. Guy at the store last week told me they'd have enough to go around so I rolled up about 15 minutes after they opened. I had to wait for the service reps to get through with the first wave of people, but after that it was great. Got my Pre and my Touchstone kit, which they sold out of as I was being processed. The replacement back with the Touchstone kit is much nicer than the plastic one that comes with the phone since it is heavier and metallic.

There was no line at all where I purchased in south Florida. The store had 3 people inside and a lotg of balloon. It was phony hype. The phone is cool, but no apps store and limited music, and weird interface will make this my secondary phone. This is NOT an iPhone killer, nor will it dent blackberry sales.

The Sprint store I went to in NJ was also empty. I did not buy. The phone seemed too plasticky and no apps. Not impressed at all.

Yep I got a device on opening day. I really love this phone. I am a long time hater of apple though I admit the ipod touch is great. the iphone not a big fan of. This of course was because Apple released a phone that was called a smart phone when it really wasn't. Not until apple releases it's third revision of the iphone OS will it be able to copy and paste text, or send picture mail. That is a very dumb thing. But people still lined up to buy it without even doing much research on the device.
I digress, but the Palm Pre is more amazing than it needs to be. Compared to what is out there this is the best phone ever. It may not have the best this or that (Highest MP camera or best music player) but it has so much in total. The way it pulled all of my contacts and appointments from google is great. The way the contacts are organized are amazing. It is so easy to contact people now. I can look for someone in my contacts. And right there I have information that i can click to send them an email or see if they are on google talk or aim. if they are on i can click and go to message them that way. They took every step possible to make this not miss any holes. There has not been an instance where I have said, I wish they did this here to make it quicker.

There is only a small segment of the consumer market interested in a smart phone.
Phones are too smart for the average user (or too complex).
Remember how many people actually could program a VCR?
Most people just want to make a call and send sms messages (texting). MMS is too expensive.

One of the most used functions on a mobile phone is the clock (knowing the time of the day) and the alarm. Simple things.

I waited in line for the phone last Saturday, I have had many phones and the palm pre is my favorite phone yet. Think of anything you would want on a phone and it has it. I have an iPod touch and I do enjoy it but palm pre is an awesome phone!

My name is Brian, and I just got my Pre on Saturday by a stroke of sheer luck... They "Found" 10 extra units in the back room when everywhere else was sold out.

I LOVE this phone, but I'm getting a little tired of hearing about how much better the iPhone is by Apple fans who haven't even touched the Pre.

Yes, the iPhone is nice and all that, but come on.. let us enjoy our phones in peace. There's no need to tell us that our phone sucks when we just laid 3-400 bucks down on the counter for it.

I hang out at http://www.PalmPreForum.org a site made for all Palm Pre owners.
