I am now of the smartphone generation. I actually bought this phone for myself a couple months ago. KJ and I dismantled our basic phone family plan when he got a Blackberry through his work. So why must I not have an upgraded gadget to play with as well? I don't have the luxury of my work providing me with a phone so I shopped around for the best plan and phone for myself. Actually, my boss has this same phone and he pretty much sold me on the Palm Pre...I guess we are now 'phone buddies'. I never thought I would use it so much and was apprehensive at first, but so far I'm getting so much use out of it. From using it to listen to morning podcasts every day, to my electronic agenda (I stopped using my little red agenda that I've had forever!), as a mobile GPS while driving, and of course for the traditional uses as an actual phone haha I'm not to the Crackberry point as my husband, but then again he uses his smartphone for work, so there's no need to keep my email on a constant refresh rate haha Anyhow, I'm quite pleased with the purchase and I think I've filled my gadget purchase quota for now. Though I know KJ has been eyeing a Kindle/Nook...
it's a new dawn. it's a new day. it's a new life for me. and i'm feeling good. -nina simone

That phone looks really smart. I'm an Android though ;) I also recently started to test the waters of the new phone generations. It's great fun once you've come to grips with it ^_^
Sinta - great fun and also a great way to kill time while waiting for a bus hehe The Android HTC Hero was a close runner-up for me, basically anything other than an iPhone :) Touchscreen features are fine, but I need an actual keyboard! Guess it's what you're used to. Have a Happy Xmas!
