The Palm Pre & the X1 has got nothing on the HD!
I actually cannot fathom how you could say that the you're ditching your HD for the Palm Pre! The X1 and the Palm Pre are equally crap compared to the HD which is Leaps and bounds ahead of them both! Makes me wonder if you've actually know what you're talking about!!! The Palm Pre is so featureless compared to the HD! Its size and physical keyboard layout is just fugly and awful to use compared to the HD! The Keyboard is awefully small, and feels quite flimsy since it is a slide phone!.
Its got no Memory card slot, it has no FM Radio, it has a small screan, no touch screen!!! only a 3.15 mp camera, does no Video! has no 3G camera for video call.....
How about a modern OS in the case of the Pre? One that is not stylus based? One that didn't come from the previous century?
Clarification - I've already ditched my HD... So what am I using before the Pre comes out? Toyed with going back to my iPhone 3G for a while, but it's almost a HD anyway... Ended up going back to my Palm Centro w/ Pre skin and UI overlay!
And since you've asked how if I know what I'm talking about - have you ever used a Palm Pre to deem it awful to use and flimsy?
And the Pre is actually a touchscreen phone like the iPhone, and has a capacitive screen as well...
And I mean - how many times have you used the radio on your phone? And the videocall cam?
