I poked around for a while and dug up a load of stuff about Palm’s Pre and webOS. Various bits of info have been updated and I even watched the developer intro video. Most of this coverage is from our pals over at PalmInfoCenter, so add them to your regular rounds. First up, PIC has a wrap-up of the coverage at Mobile World Conference in Barcelona, Spain. There’s also a 26 minute video of the Pre from PreCommunity.com. PC.C also captured video of a demo of Google Maps on the Pre. Word is that Sprint Nextel will be the Pre’s exclusive retailer throughout 2009, which seemed to goose Palm stock values. Last I heard, Palm’s stock value has remained higher based on investor confidence in Palm’s plans. If you’ve been pining after the webOS and can’t wait to get a Pre, then look to TealOS to bring some of those features to Palm OS 5.x devices like the Centro. If you would like to know how much time you’ll be spending using TealOS, then Dan Hesse, CEO of Sprint, can’t tell you when the Pre will ship, either. You’ll just have to wait and see like the rest of us. If that weren’t bad enough, certain celebs are getting some real hands-on time with the Pre. Finally, here’s that webOS developer video link. its an hour long, so grab a drink and your reading glasses.
