Palm PRE’s Unique Charging System

The new Palm PRE can be charged wire-free.  The hockey puck looking device in the picture above is called the Palm Touchstone charging dock.  The dock is attached to your computer, and the PRE is placed on top of the dock.  The magnets inside the dock align the phone so it is in the correct position for charging.  The PRE is still fully functional while it is charging.  All I can say is less wires is always a good thing.  In addition to purchasing the Touchstone, you will also need to purchase a special back cover for the PRE for everything to work.  No word on pricing.

The Day Has Arrived: NEW Palm Goodness!!!

As many of you know, I have been waiting for this day since Palm first announced this gathering about a month ago.  I have been a Palm fan for quite awhile.  I had a Palm IIIe, a TX, and now I have a Centro.  So, I kept my fingers crossed waiting for this news to come my way, and hope that Palm wasn’t going to drop another Foleo on our laps.  Palm came through BIG TIME!!!  A new OS……a new phone…a whole new time at Palm.  Check out all the goodness after the break.

Want to know what you have won?  Well, this is a pretty good prize packm, so get ready.  From our friends over at Ilium, we have a copy of King’s Corner (one of my favorite iPhone games) and eWallet for your iPhone.  Two fantastic programs.  Not enough?  Well, I agree.  We’ll also toss in a JavoEdge back case.  How does that sound?

Congrats to our first winners.  Watch for an email coming soon,.  If you did not win, don’t worry, we will have plenty more prizes coming.  I am hoping to pull out some special prizes for our Palm users in honor of today’s Pre announcement.  So, tell your Palm Centro using friends to hurry up and get their entries in.  And if you have not entered yet…well, what the heck are you waiting for?  Just hit this link and leave a comment.

Finally!! A Touch Screen Walkman From Sony

X-Series_lw

It is no secret that I am a pretty big fan of the Sony Walkman Video players.  They are fantastic media players, with some really advanced features. My big disappointment, however, with the whole line was that they really did not offer a large screen player which could adequately compete with the iPod Touch.  I have really been waiting for Sony to come out with a quality player which could compete with the ipod Touch as a solid video player.  Well, at CES this week, they announced their newest model, the X1000.  Hit the jump for the full press release on this fantastic looking new media player.

The truth is: graphics are just not supposed to look this good on a mobile device.  I mean, really, when you think about mobile games, you think cartoons, stick figures, and even simple animation.  But really, who do these people think they are with their 3D animation and crisp cut scenes.  This is a graphical quality which is usually reserved for more powerful gaming systems.  Impressed?  You bet…and then some.
