Tom, one of our developers likes to be different.
He has chosen the Palm Pre to be his cellular weapon of choice.
Sad story.
The end.

Tom says
Fine then. No more code for you.
austinklee says
Even more sad is that he is wearing a Fraternity/Sorority T-Shirt…Sad all around.
Tom says
Yeah because Christian fraternities are total waste of time, huh?
benrwoodard says
Was he giving you a virtual high five?
Tom says
At this rate, I’m gonna giving everyone a big hug of sarcasm… π
Brett Barner says
I’ll be really impressed when Tom posts a pic of his 8Bit embroidered purse…ahem…I mean “laptop bag”.
Tom says
Doesn’t exist, so don’t hold your breath.

Yeah, I totally feel your pain. I hate my Palm Pre. I got it on launch day and will be getting rid of it as soon as possible. Hopefully for the HTC EVO 4G!
Problems:
1) Random Reboots
2) Clunky JavaScript interpreted language operating system
3) Battery now only last 4 hours, even after tweaks (no video, no nothing, just lasts 4 hours)
4) Internal Speaker randomly stops working. People can hear me, I can’t hear them
5) Screen is not glass, and scratches like crazy
Funny thing is that the Sprint buy back program was offering over $100 originally, now they will give you $60. To put this in perspective, they will also give you $60 for a 1st Gen iPhone.
Tom says
The only problem I’ve had with the Pre is that the power button screwed up. Got a replacement unit in a day and it was fine..
wvpv says
That’s it?? Why?
Where’s the infographic?
Tom says
There’s more FUD that info, so there’s not one ;).

Stephen Bateman says
Bah…what was he thinking?
Tom says
Oh, you know, physical keyboard, multi-tasking, less expensive service, etc..
d3ft punk says
How is this a sad story? My ole 20/20 hindsight tells me that nothing beats a physical keyboard (and anybody but AT&T).
Tom says
You deserve a high-five.

Oops I meant Tom’s right our left. π
