Looks like a lot of Droid-ites responding - clearly the favorite of many
techies. So I'll just pipe in with my thoughts on the Pre.

As a long time user of Windows Mobile devices, I'm very impressed and happy
with the Palm Pre. As I told a friend of mine (iPhone user) it's the first
phone I've had that I didn't need to seriously hack to get some good use out
of it.

*What I like*: The Pre has a touch screen and fully implemented HTML5 user
interface *with* multi-touch gestures. It integrates very well with Exchange
(for work) and Google (for personal). The Synergy feature gets me access to
everyone's information in one fell swoop. It has a physical keyboard. The
absolute best thing, though, is the relationship between Palm and the
"hacker" community. Witness this recent twitter posting from
WebOSInternals: http://twitter.com/webosinternals/status/7145061661. They
were given early access to a WebOS update by Palm. Contrast that with the
relationship the Jail Break community has with Apple! In fact, many
applications in the official App Catalog were "graduates" from the
side-loading, app gallery. Palm has taken quite a few hacker patches and
incorporated them into the official releases of WebOS.

*What I don't like*: Well, I could do with a few more apps. Having used
Windows Mobile phones (in spite of the interface) and being used to the
availability of things like the xda developer's forum has spoiled me. I
could do with a larger screen. Maybe we could jail-break the iPad and run
WebOS on it!
