I loved my Palm Prē. So many things they innovated that we take for granted now.
Such a shame they weren’t able to stick around long enough to properly compete.
Me too. Loved that thing. I remember when I was able to truly multitask and switch applications seamlessly. It was great. I still feel like iOS and android don’t switch between apps as smoothly as I was able to do on my pre.
Only took android 15 years to get it sort of right. 2009 pre was ahead of its time.
Towards the end you could easily load custom kernels to try and make the os less laggy. Ahh those were the days …
I remember overclocking mine so that it was smooth lol. Was great.
The pre 2 was the sweet version, but webos is all I ever wanted. 😭
I still have one in my basement somewhere, I miss the palm os, it was really awesome at the time
I loved my BlackBerry
I had one. I really liked it but there were a couple of major downsides I remember. If you had to reboot it, it took many minutes to come back up. It also had the build quality of a sand castle. My wife and I both went through multiple devices in the couple of years we had them. It was my first smart phone.
I had a treo 650, a centro, and a tungsten before that and they worked shockingly well looking back on them.
Whenever I read #facepalm I think of the pre
