iPhone 3Gs… Where it should have started??

iPhone3Gs

To start with I’m not what’s being called a Mac ”Fanboy”. Any device I’ve decided to purchase, the decision has been based on the actual device and not on who manufactures it or the hype surrounding it and that’s why I’ve avoided the previous 2 iPhones. The new iPhone 3Gs sees some improvements to the hardware to bring it in to line with other popular smart phones on the market but combining it with the new iPhone OS 3.0 upgrade puts it right up there as one of the better phones on the market and now deserves my attention.

The HTC Touch Pro 2 has come up in previous posts and I feel it’s a good indication what’s to come from HTC. It is now their flagship business device and looks to be pretty damn good. If you remember there were leaked photos from HTC earlier this year, one of those photos was the Rhodium.

OK so the Pre finally became available in the US on the 6th June and certainly the majority of things said about it are good.

If people are actually following this they’ll know that the Pre came to my attention back in January when I started looking about getting a new phone. Since then the Pre was looking good but just a few things have put me off it now.

Sprint announce date for Palm Pre launch – June 6th

May 19, 2009 Gadgets No comments

We finally got a date today from Sprint in the US, June 6th, but still no info on a date for this side of the pond so it looks like we’ll be waiting until after the Summer to pick it up in Europe.

Sprint has announced today that the Palm Pre will be available on June 6. Sprint announced that it will be available nationwide in Sprint stores, as well as at Best Buy, Radio Shack, and select Wal-Mart stores. The webOS-based phone will retail for $199.99 (after rebate and service agreement)

After the announcement of the launch date we were hit with the usual stories of “Expect Palm Pre Shortages” so anyone planning on getting one on or around the day of launch better get planning their over night camping in queues.
