12:09PM And that's that! Keep your eyes peeled -- we will have a lot more on this later.

12:08PM Jon: "We're just getting started."

12:08PM "So if I leave you with one thought: we think that Palm's human-centered philosophy coupled with these technologies really sets us apart. It's not possible without this team, and I want to thank them." Big cheers.

12:07PM "Recap: the always-connected OS, and dev can work on this. The Palm pre, the one phone that will help you navigate through your life. Thirdly, partners -- we think there's going to be 100,000's of devs on this platform. Pandora told them that it took them 3 days to bring their app to the new OS, so we think this platform will explode. One another thing... all those apps were developed in CSS, HTML, or JavaScript."

12:05PM Ed is back... again!

12:05PM I think we're working towards a look at Facebook on the pre... though we're not sure. Oh wait -- maybe not. This was just a Facebook pimp session. Wouldn't want to forget about them.

12:04PM Thanks Chris! This is what it looks like when brains are exploding over new gadgets. Pure control.

12:02PM Now we're getting a little history lesson on Facebook.

12:02PM "Thanks, it's great to be here." Apparently this Facebook service has a lot of users.

12:01PM Facebook is here -- they're going to show off some Facebook integration. Sheryl Sandberg, the COO of FB.

12:01PM Showing off some of their partners. Facebook, Google, Pandora, Yahoo!, AOL...

12:00PM That's vague.

12:00PM Pre will be available in the first half of 2009... "As soon as possible."

12:00PM Ed is back.

11:59AM He's really going on about Sprint. Fair enough. They'll likely get some new subs from this.

11:58AM Wow. He just said "The CES."

11:57AM "We've taken steps in 2008 to make sure we stay a leader... simply everything... we have other great plans..." Look, they have plans, and you can get them on a cellphone -- do you get it?

11:56AM "Our 3G coverage is 4 times the size of AT&T's..." He's talking about how totally awesome Sprint's network is. Sprint's network will crush and destroy other networks.

11:54AM "This feels good in your hand or your pocket... but I really like that this has a touchscreen for navigation, but I'm a power user, and I need that keyboard."

11:54AM He's running through how stoked he is on this phone. We'll bet! Could be the lifeline that Sprint needed right now.

11:53AM "As the first provider, we'll enable customers to integrate the information on the most dependant 3g network..."

11:53AM Dan: "Those pictures of Mexico look great. We're announcing an innovate device."

11:52AM "It wouldn't be possible to do this without partners. We have Sprint as our exclusive launch partner. Joining me is Dan Hesse..."

11:52AM "I love touch -- it's so cool." "You might be wondering, how does pre fit in and compete? We think it's perfectly balanced, it's not just for work or for play -- it's the one phone you can use through your entire life." We don't think he means forever... we hope not.

11:51AM "So let's recap -- breakthrough user experience, Palm Synergy, universal search, notifications, multitasking... we have a couple of more things... here's Ed!"

11:50AM The charger is called the Touchstone.

11:50AM Wow, a wireless charger for the pre -- inductive charging. Don't see that a lot.

11:49AM "Many of you know I'm a big fan of ecosystems -- I'd like to show you some accessories..."

11:49AM "That demo just scratches the surface of what the Palm OS is capable of."

11:49AM This is a huge win for Palm. People are stoked.

11:48AM "I've shown you a lot... with that, I'd like to invite Jon back on stage."

11:47AM Applications resize when urgent messages come through, so that notifications don't interfere with the ongoing activity.

11:46AM The music player also snaps into the dash. When you zoom out you're able to control the music while switching to other apps or working on other stuff. "This is a completely open design -- devs can write anything for it. Any controls and graphics you want. CSS, HTML, and JavaScript."

11:45AM Hmm, music app took a moment to load up.

11:45AM Any developer can use the notifications. You can pop them open into a dashboard at the bottom of the screen with all your waiting messages.

11:44AM Wow -- pop-up notifications while you're in other apps like the G1.

11:43AM The cards rotate as well, everything moves pretty snappily. The device is clearly quite powerful from a CPU standpoint.

11:42AM You can use the gesture area to flip back and forth between pages. The rotate on the browser is very smooth.

11:42AM Here we go, you can flip the phone sideways for widescreen browsing. Ha! "Joy of Vole Sex" People are cracking up.

11:41AM You can have multiple browser cards -- zooms out to a grid of windows.

11:40AM Fast zoom -- incredibly slick.

11:40AM Showing off the web browser now. Really smooth, multitouch zooming in and out.

11:38AM "This keyboard is useful for more than just typing -- we can use it to navigate." Active search from the keyboard, searches contacts, but also lets you go to web searches. Spotlight-like, it brings up apps, contacts, links out to websearch.

11:37AM "So, that's Synergy... but not everything can be solved by a flick or a gesture."

11:36AM IM: just like the rest of the phone, all of your IM services are consolidated into one list.

11:35AM You can follow a contact through their email to IM status, which lets you click into sending a message on a variety of services.

11:34AM "Typically you're locked into one email at a time -- but cards on Web OS means I don't lose my place. I have all my compose windows open at once." This would be handy for us drafters in the house.

11:33AM "With Synergy, we're searching all contacts across all your address books. The best part, if we don't find the contact, we automatically start searching your corp database."

11:32AM Attachments, inline images... drop down to choose what account you're sending mail from.

11:32AM Email app -- very nice. Icons for Gmail...

11:32AM "So I can tap and type."

11:31AM "One of the thing we've been known for is showing you a lot of calendar information. We compress time in the list, so that the next events are visible. We compress empty time. And as Ed said, Palm has focused on pen and paper."

11:30AM "We apply these same ideas in the calendar -- I have a work meeting, some Gcal events -- it's all together in one list. Sometimes getting this info can be overwhelming, we let you sort what you want to look at." Color coded calendars from multiple sources.

11:29AM "In Synergy, you don't have to import, you just login. But you don't want duplicates in this list. You see this stack of photos in the contact card -- that means there's 3 sources for this contact, from Google, Outlook, and Facebook. But I can look at all her phone numbers with no dupes, and I don't have to worry about managing this."

11:28AM "It's more than just how you flow -- it's about how you connect to the web. We bring info together in one place. We call this Synergy. Here's how it works."

11:28AM "How's that for some newness?" Big applause!

11:27AM If you want to quit an app, you just slide it off the screen by flicking up. The device is automatically saving as you go.

11:27AM This is quite genius -- you can also rearrange the order of open apps.

11:26AM He presses the center button and all the apps zoom out to a scrollable set of smaller windows, like tabs in iPhone safari.

11:26AM "This is good, but it's not good enough... still too modal... we need flow. Instead of a desktop where you pile up windows, we imaged a deck of cards... let me show you."

11:25AM Quick launch from anywhere, it brings up a launcher "wave" across the screen. This is pretty impressive stuff.

11:24AM There's a note app up, like stickies on a corkboard.

11:24AM Flcik through photos -- very iPhone esque. Launcher comes up over any application without leaving it.

11:23AM You can use either side of that area. Now showing off a swipe up to show a launcher with apps. Smart! Photos slides open, really really tight UI design here.

11:22AM Swipe to open and go back -- very clean, very smooth.

11:22AM "Our touch is special, it goes beyond the screen." He's touching in the gesture area -- to go back to the list you can flick back in that spot.

11:21AM Flick scrolling through contact lists, nice inertia. Tap to open a contact... yeah that make sense. Very slick UI, light and airy.

11:21AM Image uploads are coming, internet is SLOW here.

11:20AM "Let's talk about UI -- Palm is known for simplicity. THis becomes almost invisible." Showing off the screen with a dock of app icons along the bottom.

11:20AM "Because this is Vegas -- there's nothing up my sleeves. This is live."

11:20AM Matias Duarte is out to show off the OS!

11:19AM Now showing a comparison against other devices, it's a bit smaller than some familiar shapes...

11:19AM Wow, slick curved design. Very handsome.

11:19AM Portrait slide out keyboard!

11:18AM "When you want to jam out an email... you don't want a cheesy virtual keyboard"

11:18AM The ringer on/off is here. Power button... yeah you want that.

11:18AM MicroUSB connection, USB 2.0 jack -- with mass storage support. 3.5mm headphone jack. Yes!

11:17AM "By popular demand... you can replace the battery."

11:17AM Volume rockers on the side, 3 mp camera with led flash.

11:17AM 3.1-inch display, 320 x 480 -- touchscreen, with multitouch... it also extends down to the center button. "That area is the gesture area."

11:16AM "Laptop like performance."

11:16AM TI's latest OMAP CPU. The first one with this CPU.

11:16AM Stereo A2DP support.

11:15AM EvDO Rev. A, 802.11b/g, GPS, Blutooth, 8GB storage, and a "fast processor"

11:15AM This is definitely handsome -- rounded, black, trackball down below.

11:15AM It's a tiny, somewhat oval device, full touchscreen... looks like there's a slideout. This looks like some mockups we've seen!

11:14AM The new Palm pre!

11:14AM "Imagine what it would look like, the ideal device... I'm going to bring Jon up to show it to you."

11:14AM "We wanted to build the right phone for this -- it has to be really killer. It has to be the right thing for handling the stuff you care about."

11:13AM "We're going to show you this in a second, but I want to talk about this a little first. If you know CMS, HTML, XML, you can design for this platform. If you can do web development, you can design for this -- no new languages to learn."

11:12AM "How are we going to do that? We had to start with a new platform from the ground up. And we've done that."

11:12AM He's building towards something that sounds like what Microsoft was on about last night with Live.

11:11AM "People want to simplify, but they want to keep certain things separate. I like having my work life and my home life. It's all part of what I like to do, but information is everywhere. Wouldn't it be nice if we could take that and bring it to you in a really seamless way? To your pocket, so your cal and contacts seamlessly get integrated in one place."

11:10AM "Today we have a new twist on that problem -- we do all kinds of things on the internet, our lives live in a lot of different places on the net. You have contacts in Outlook, mail somewhere else... those are all in little drawers, and you have to move from one to another. It's modal -- so we thought there's an opportunity here."

11:09AM "That eventually led to too many devices... so we designed the smartphone. We combined all of those devices into a single device... the Treo."

11:08AM He's discussing the 80's and the data people had laying around -- how there were no ways to really keep it organized. Hence the Palm Pilot.

11:07AM "We have some cool stuff to show you, but I want to take you on a little history lesson."

11:07AM "Want the tech to be invisible. But there's another reason we're the right company. Mobile is in our DNA. We don't do computers, STBs... we do mobile."

11:06AM "When we designed the Palm Pilot, we didn't think about competing with the Newton, we thought about competing with pen and paper."

11:05AM Ed Colligan is out!

11:05AM "I can't think of a better company for this than Palm."

11:05AM "We have our data all over the place. We can take all that information and put it all in one place, in your hands, and let that data interact." "You need to have the right phone, and the right platform. Forward looking, flexible, powerful."

11:04AM "For those of you that have been on a beach in Mexico, you're thinking 'why?'" "The next wave is mobile, and Palm's DNA is mobile. Today's market is different than it was a few years ago -- you need to have a great phone. But it needs to be more than a bunch of apps bolted onto that phone."

11:03AM "I was a busy guy in Mexico..." Laughs. "I've been through a lot of transitions."

11:03AM "I'm on the beach one day when the phone rings -- it's Fred Andersen from Elevation Partners. They wanted me to meet someone. So they sent Ed Colligan down. He pitched me on restoring innovation at Palm."

11:02AM "I'm so glad you could be here today. I used to work for this cool company in Cupertino. After a while I wanted to take a break, so we packed up... we moved to Mexico."

11:01AM Jon Rubinstein is out!

11:01AM Ah ha, Vampire Weekend. Music is getting loud! We're off!

10:55AM "Good morning everyone, we're going to begin in a few minutes... silence cellphones."

10:54AM Things should be getting underway any moment, everyone seems to be settling in.

10:52AM Yeah, we're sipping on some St. Juniper's gin and Mad Hatter vodka. Yum.

10:49AM The shot they keep showing of the bar has all Photoshopped alcohol. No real brands.

10:47AM We've spoken to someone close to Palm just now who tells us that this won't be an incremental move. This is "the whole thing." We'll see if that pans out.

10:40AM Hey, they're playing Darkel's 'My Own Sun'! Nice.

10:39AM Scoble's on the floor. Prepare for tweeting.

10:38AM There's a bag with a cloth covering on the podium... kind of looks like a coconut from a distance. Very odd indeed.

10:37AM They're also showing slow pans of a really modern house, and what appears to be the ceiling of stylized train station. The message here seems to be focused on minimal design. Whether that will have any bearing on what products they show off today is another question altogether.

10:29AM The setup is pretty sweet. Chairs are broken up by tables with water and chocolate for people in attendance, and there's a rounded stage with a massive projection behind it. Our question... why are they showing scenes of a bar? Perhaps time will tell.

10:27AM We're in and seated! This is by far the most comfortable and appealing presser we've been to yet.

是滑盖的，不好，故障率变高且难看又变厚，还不如舍弃键盘仿S1\iphone好！

没了treo的键盘，还买它干嘛？不如去买钻石和iphone

如果屏幕可以转横过来的话那就和之前坛子上看到的图一样了...

vincegu · 发表于 2009-1-9 09:35

有垂直下拉的物理键盘！Palm解释使用这种键盘的原因有二：1，使用垂直下拉键盘并没有比水平下拉键盘（Google G1）来的困难

vincegu · 发表于 2009-1-9 09:37

2，目前只有Palm使用垂直下拉键盘，这样使大家对这款机器印象更深，识别性更好！

ctn88888 · 发表于 2009-1-9 10:27

不错哦，呵呵。我已经收到palm的邮件。It's here. The all-new Palm? Pre? phone

jioji · 发表于 2009-1-9 10:51

机子是不错，分辨率太垃圾了，现在出来的机子大都是480×640的，palm把480×640当作下次的升级了，也省得再开发新机型了，考虑的相当周全！

支持中文否，电池容量多大的，滑盖禁使么，核心问题啊

huangjunwu · 发表于 2009-1-9 16:07

期待中，希望是一款好机，一个好系统，软件不容易崩溃，不容易冲突，最好联系人能够兼容TREO的，免得换机转移联系人太麻烦。看样子好像电池不大，因为手机比较薄。希望有一个极品的大容量电池，有更多的软件支持。
