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.



Back in March of 2008, we reported that Myka created a BitTorrent box that was capable of directly receiving your Torrent downloads and replaying them on a TV. It’s a competitor to Apple TV, and people who torrent a lot would definitely like the Myka box. When the product was announced back in March, it was set to start shipping in the summer, but nearly half a year later, it looks like that time has come.
Myka was having trouble meeting financial deadlines, so the had to put the Myka operation to a halt until recently. They got their factory based in China running again and users who ordered a Myka should expect their unit within 4-6 weeks. The Myka receives direct torrent downloads using LAN, or Wi-Fi, and it’s preloaded BitTorrent software, and it can connect to your TV using Composite, S-Video, or SPDIF. The product sells in various models including an 80GB, 160GB, or 500GB model. If you want to buy a Myka now, they cost $299, $349 or $459, respectively.
