/ X& P& }( E# ?/ a$ J" Y IYou've seen our Palm Pre review, but if you only had to get ten things out of it, which ten things would they be? It would be these ten things.
' U/ Y* ?* O9 \7 H/ ?
9 _( ]4 N9 c" p4 @; N; ^1) Palm's webOS is tremendously usable. The new concepts theyintroduce—gestures under the screen, cards to represent running apps,searching for contacts and apps from the main screen—are all intuitiveand easy to pick up. The look of the UI is also soothing, with largishicons and largish text, fluid animations and rounded corners. It'sdefinitely a "web" OS in that it takes a lot of cues from web designpatterns and motifs.

2) The Pre is a fantastic size and shape and feels natural in both your pocket or your hand. The rounded pebble shape is pleasurable, and the weight is solid without being weighty. That said...

# t+ P# v2 l$ `2 e4 n+ Y$ r# B3) When you open up the phone, the story changes dramatically. The edges are too sharp—sharp enough to cut cheese—andthe keyboard is tiny and difficult to type on. If Palm had includediPhone/Android-level word correction, basically a system that wouldbasically fix misspellings for you to correct for inaccurate typing,this wouldn't be a problem.

. J1 Q- p0 v& P, U3 b; r4)Multitasking is handled elegantly. Palm's webOS introduces the conceptof "cards" as apps, where you can shuffle them around, scroll throughyour deck and deal them off your phone to close them. It's great mostof the time to be able to swap between emailing and texting and YouTubeand your browser without having to close out and lose your spot in eachapp. Unfortunately, multitasking works the same as it does in your PCin that you have a limited amount of system resources to go around, andusing heavy apps will mean you can't do much else without a significantslowdown—like having your music stutter., b- r0 A. n/ W# V
U' O9 g% |" w: z5) There will be various hardware editions with this OS. Unlike theiPhone, where there's basically only one phone with the iPhone OS everyyear, Palm's planning on releasing different phones in different formfactors all running the same OS. There's already been one leaked: theCentro-like Palm Eos that's heading to AT&T.

6) It works with iTunes. Palm went to the trouble of making the Prepretend to be an iPod when synced to iTunes, allowing you to transferyour music and video and photos without a problem. Playlists make itover just fine, but song ratings and play counts aren't supported onthe Pre. And your DRM'ed iTunes songs won't make it over either, butyour MP3 and DRM-free ones will.

# |# e# d. _# J+ Y4 [) d/ M2 ^/ ] ?7) Facebook and Google sync well. Not only does it have push Gmail,there's something called Synergy that grabs your Facebook and Googlecontacts and merges them together on your phone. You may not want ALLyour Facebook contacts or everyone you've ever emailed from your Gmailaccount to be on your phone, but it's all or nothing at this point.
" X+ T" q! S( g8 b5 i" Z! \! ^1 W3 ~+ Z
8) It works with your old Palm apps. If you're an old-school Palm OSuser that really needs some random app, like the eBook reader orEpocrates medical software (before their Pre version comes out), thiscan ease your transition.5 A. e. i" y3 z' t( m1 b

" D; p1 v, p% s3 @9 r7 @2 O9) The screen and multitouch are both high quality. Like I said in the review, the screen is crisp and sharp and clear, and the multitouch seems to track slightly better and quicker than the iPhone.8 h6 Z+ k/ [' L K2 q* j/ `
6 A4 _$ i4 y4 |1 Y3 |7 c/ R- u10) The app catalog is tiny now, but will most likely grow quitefast since the phone is slightly more consumery than Android phones(Android is a little more hardcore-based than this). Although I don'tsee an explosion as big as the iTunes App Store, I do think there willbe quite a few apps for the phone eventually.

11) BONUS! The Touchstone charger charges reallyslowly. If you're looking to charge in a hurry, plug the microUSBcharger directly into the Pre. But if you're just docking it at workand want to keep the screen on standby so you can see emails and textscome in, the Touchstone is a decent solution. It does, however, makeyour phone quite hot.

1 i( P" a& ?0 V0 B大家已经看过了Palm Pre预览,如果非得挑出关于Pre的十件事,会是哪十件呢?请看:
! }" ~' y8 a! E+ I0 |* L- Y! Q( \/ e' S0 g
1)Plam的webOS是相当好用的!在屏幕进行手势操作的新理念,在卡片上呈现那些运行的程序,从主屏幕上搜索联系人和程序,所有这一切都是那么直观和便捷。用户界面看上去也很舒心,大大的图标,大大的文字,流体式的动画,还有圆角~~一个从网页设计样式和主题获取灵感的操作系统,我们理所当然的应该称之为“web” OS。% x/ z4 W/ v& t* ?# b4 J
Y9 b% N8 t- m; t( B$ I3 s9 l2)Pre无论从尺寸还是形状上,看起来都是那么得奇妙。而且,不管是把它放在口袋里还是掌心上,感觉都那么自然。这个圆形鹅卵石的形状看了很舒服,机子的重量也实在,一点也不像之前人们所说的很重。 V8 O, ^- L) l( e6 X9 {/ R
" Z7 f9 B% W# C: o( B" W3)打开机子的时候,story的转换也相当引人注目。边缘锐利得可以切奶酪了,键盘太小,打字很不方便。如果Palm在webOS中加入了iPhone/Android级的错误纠正(为用户纠正基本的输入错误),那键盘难用就不算什么问题了~~(sole注:webOS带自动纠错功能哟~~不过与iPhone/Android是不是一个级别的就不知道了,毕竟这三款机子我一个都没用过)
1 l: Q; X( v! l# `8 a' [/ @: k( O; b$ _0 p' `
4)多任务处理相当完美。Palm的webOS带来了把“卡片”当做程序的理念,用户可以在上面随便移动、自由关闭它们。用户也可以不用关闭就自由切换邮件程序、文本、YouTube、浏览器等。不幸的是,webOS的多任务功能和PC上的一样,有很多系统资源限制。当用户使用大型程序并进行很多操作的时候,系统明显就会变慢,比如音乐播放的时候会磕磕巴巴。6 Z( T% X. \& m( W, E& f9 I
% ?% w q5 V, E% b% E4 v$ l8 g8 X/ S
5)webOS兼容很多硬件,不像iPhone,每年只有一台机子可以使用iPhone OS。Palm计划在不同的机子上使用相同的操作系统,而且已经泄露了一台叫做Palm EOS的机子,它是为AT&T定制的,外观和Centro差不多。9 x7 F5 Y0 ?# n" U5 ^
$ m6 O" r! ~" w, ?9 u0 T" `* ^
6)兼容iTunes。Palm解决了让Pre和iTunes同步的问题,用户可以把Pre当做一台iPod,通过iTunes顺利地传送音频、视频、图片。播放列表能正常工作,不过Pre不支持歌曲分级和播放次数。Pre同样不支持DRM加密的iTunes音乐,只支持其他MP3和没有DRM加密的音乐。
$ T% k q( B: a: z$ }, |. ]
9 x' J3 c2 x' s" p: w7)Facebook和Google同步功能很好。Pre不仅带Gmail推送功能,还有一个叫做Synergy的功能,可以收集Facebook和Google上的联系人,并把它们合并到机子上。用户可能并不希望把所有的Facebook联系人或Gmail账号上发过邮件的联系人都合并到机子上,不过,目前,要么全部,要么一个都不合并,只能这样。4 M# S, b5 @/ i
# k9 G) B3 m8 j J' E6 v
8)与旧的Palm程序兼容。如果你是一个守旧的Palm OS用户,你可能需要使用一些程序,比如eBook reader或Epocrates medical software(在它们的Pre专用版本出来前),Pre能够轻松地完成迁移工作。9 @3 u" [' C3 H3 D4 o8 H
( x- ?1 G2 ?5 n. r1 l Y9)屏幕和多点触摸质量都很高!就像我在预览中说过的,屏幕很清脆、锐利、干净,多点触摸也比iPhone更快。 i. y1 ]# K% J
% D# B2 U" H0 x- H/ t" X
10)程序分类目前还很少,不过,很有可能会快速增长,因为它比Android手机(Android比Pre更基于核心)更吸引客户。尽管我还没看到和iTunes App Store一样的爆炸性增长,我依然相信Pre上最终会有相当多的程序。" Y- R5 X1 `) W0 k8 Q* |! I' j6 o; C
8 F7 o. a; N* p9 ^5 h w11)额外奖励~!!Touchstone充电器充电实在太慢了!!如果需要快速充电的话,直接把micro-USB充电器插入Pre。不过,如果你在工作中需要使用到Pre,并且希望查看邮件、文本的话,最好还是使用Touchstone。只是,你的机子会变得相当热哦~~$ ~7 R# D$ L+ {7 U+ @; W
