Palm Pre Information & Updates
Palm just introduced their next-gen smartphone, the Palm Pre, and next-gen operating system, Palm webOS. Gadgetell's got the latest Pre and webOS information and news for you right here.
I wouldn’t mind trying out one of these babies. It looks sweet. LG’s official German blog confirmed today** the first official info on the Viewty II, which also apparently now goes by the Viewty Smart.
So what do we have? The GC900 (the official model number) is less than a half inch thick, and weighs in at only 3.17 ounces. The screen is decent sized at a 3 inch WVGA for your viewing pleasure, with a touchscreen display. The phone uses LG’s 3D S-Class User Interface, and will offer what the manufacturer informs us to be “personalization options that will be taken to a new level here.” Guess we will have to wait and see just what that means.
The 8 megapixel camera (Schneider-Kreuznach) with a (purported) Xenon flash (although it looks a tad small to be a Xenon) is obviously the big draw for this phone. It also features an on-screen slider key which allows switching back and forth between still images and video (720 x 480 pixel resolution). You’ve also got geotagging GPS for fun with all those photos.
The Viewty II (or Viewty Smart—take your pick) has 32 GB of storage, DivX playback, Quad-band GSM, HSPA, and Wi-Fi. And by the way, some of the pictures floating around out there have the Orange logo on them, so it looks like they are probably a carrier.
So, while it is a little weird that the company popped some information on their blog page and then pulled it the same day…apparently it was a bit of a “oops, that wasn’t supposed to be announced yet” sort of thing, since now they are saying that more info will be coming soon.
No word on availability or pricing yet, but keep it here for more details as they come in.
** The blog apparently confirmed, then pulled the confirmation a few hours later.
Hit the break for more photos of this sweet thang.
